Hey all,
Was looking for any final critiques before my brew day of a Saison this weekend. Specifically, although other feedback is certainly welcome, the hops choice (Nelson Sauvin) and the usage of Paradise Seeds. I've done other saisons before per the profile requirements (light hops/lack of spice) and was looking for something different here. IBUs clock in @ 30, but I've not used NS before. Any thoughts/feedback is most appreciated!
