I'm planning on making a Brett saison soon, something similar to Boulevard's Saison Brett. Will go with a simple grain bill - mostly Belgian pils and wheat - then do late/dry hopping with some Nelson and Citra I've been wanting to use up.
Debating which route to go on yeast. I've heard a few good things about White Labs Farmhouse Blend (670), but I've never used a blend before. Just curious if anyone else has any experience using this yeast. Do you think I would get better results doing a normal fermentation using Wyeast 3711 and then adding a vial of something like Brett brux towards the end of fermentation for secondary/bottle conditioning?
Right now I'm leaning towards the 3711+Brett, but could still be swayed. Haven't seen the Saison Brett available recently, but Tank 7 is always available for me and could throw some dregs in there too.
