Wyeast 3711 - French Saison
Thinking the pale base blend of Pils, Vienna, and Munich will make a complex malt backbone complimented with the Aromatic which should stand out in such a mild base but not be overwhelming and obvious. The Turbinado Sugar should help thin the body and add another layer of flavor complexity.
I've actually never done a complex hop schedule. This will be my most complex yet. How does the hop schedule look? Two ounces in noble flavor and aroma seemed appropriate for a Saison. Thoughts on that? I have a pound of each so variety is not changing.
