    BJCP Style Help - Strawberry Saison

    Just got my results. Got a 28 under Fruit Beer and 38.5 under Belgian Specialty. Not sure if they were tasting the same beer based on the feedback. Anyhow, I'm happy with the results. I just have to wait until next June to try and improve on it. Thanks for the help!

    BJCP Style Help - Strawberry Saison

    I decided to enter into both fruit beer and belgian specialty. I haven't bottled before so I'm a little nervous about carbonation but I'm going to check a test beer the night before submissions are due to make sure it's okay. I'll post the results, good or bad. Thanks for all of your help.

    BJCP Style Help - Strawberry Saison

    I'm hoping someone can provide a good suggestion. I'm entering my first competition and I'll be submitting a saison to which I added 5lbs of strawberry in secondary. It has very nice, dry saison character but a really strong berry aroma and taste and I'm just not sure which category I should...

Just racked to a keg last night, force carbed and had a taste this morning and I'm happy to report that this is a really...

    Ruined 1056 with high fermentation temp?

    Thanks for the advice. I checked gravity today and sampled a taste. It fermented down to 1.012 from 1.070 after 3 days and there's still quite a lot of fermentation going on. Taste wasn't blindingly horrible, to my surprise. I think I will just let it sit for a few weeks and then hop the heck...

    Ruined 1056 with high fermentation temp?

    It was in the high 60s on sunday night and dropped to around 62 by late monday afternoon. Probably didn't get back into the 70s until late monday night or early this morning, by my estimate.

    Ruined 1056 with high fermentation temp?

    So, I think I ruined my beer but I wanted to see if anyone had any experience or advice. I brewed on sunday and pitched a 1.5 liter starter of Wyeast 1056. Fermentation kicked off great and had a high krausen by the next morning but since the carboy was in the basement and I didn't want the...
