Dark Saison is such a cool, and under-brewed style of beer! Take the spiciness, dryness and refreshing qualities of a traditional Belgian Saison and add layered complexities of chocolate and dark fruits. It is an AMAZING combination of flavors and one I really loved making.

I brewed one yesterday, I’m curious about the result but will have to be patient
Could you make a video talking more about the open fermentation process?
Probably someone mentioned it already. For the candi sugars, you could take some amount of wort out and dissolve it apart from kwttle, then simply pour back in that solution. Less chances for scorching 😉
One of my favorite styles.
Great work on the production upgrades! Well executed and watched to the end.
Have you made a Flanders red ale ?
Not yet!
@@TheApartmentBrewer I recently got to try a high abv Belgian dubbel at a local brewery and I was blown away with how good it was, I got heavy banana and vanilla notes to it
@@tjf42193 They are awesome!
