Looking for some critique on this recipe for a Saison. I'm trying to use some newer hops and get a "fruity" saison out of this. I haven't used El Dorado or Matueka yet so I may be way off with this and thinking these will go together. I would like to get the FG down as well but not sure about the best way to go for that. The yeast may bring it down, I calculated at 80% and White Labs says it can go up to 85%. If it gets 85% then it'll go down to 1.006 which I'm ok with.
