EDIT - Updated recipe brewed on page 2
My wife has asked me to brew her a low carb beer, but wants something with some flavor. My initial thought was a saison due to the yeast typically finishing pretty low, and still giving some character.
Here's my plan;
83% Belgian pilsner malt
17% wheat malt
To an OG of 1.030
0.5oz East Kent Golding 60min (12 IBU)
1.0oz Styrian Golding 10min (4 IBU)
0.5oz East Kent Golding 10 min (4 IBU)
Pitch Wyeast 3711.
If I do my calcs correct, it should get me a 3.5 - 4% beer with about 95 cals and 4 carbs.
Any thoughts on how this might come out? Look like a decent plan?
