So when i bought my brew kit a couple months ago they asked me what i wanted for my first brew......i told them i wanted a Blue Moon clone.....because that is my favorite easy drinking beer. The fermentation smelled funny....to me it was moldy smell, but i had mulitiple brewing friends tell me it smelled like a belgian and was fine. Then after a two weeks in the bottle.....it still has a strong aroma and a small taste of the smell from the fermentation. I think I made a discovery in my local brew though. In my research I found that they gave me Saison liquid yeast for this batch. The description of the yeast doesn't even sound like what i wanted. At my local brew they had a beer that was an Imperial Saison beer with an orange, spicy twist. I thought this sounds like a blue moon "clone" with saison.....so I tried it. Bingo! taste exactly like mine smells.....obviously theirs is better because mines not done carbing.
Long story short.....who in here would use Saison if your trying to do a Blue moon clone?
