So here's the third in the "experiments in yeast" series from Elusive. This time we have a Saison yeast from France. Saison used to be brewed by farmers in the summer and drunk by hired field hands, it was usually very low in alcohol and also naturally fermented meaning that the yeast was simply "in the air" and inoculated the beer spontaneously. The flavour profile of this beer was classic saison, straw, lemon and slightly acidic, a good example of the style and really refreshing.
