Wyeast Belgian Saison


(i am also using beer alchemy for the first time that is why the malt percents are so weird. i was just trying to get the final gravity to where i wanted it.)
 
Looks pretty good. I would probably drop the carapils, as it will mostly just add body and take away from the dryness. Be ready to work to keep the yeast happy and the temperatures ramped up with the belgian saison.
