Les Saisonniers Saison de Table Extract Kit

O.G: 1035 / Ready: 5 weeks

During the early part of the 20th century Flemish farms would employ Les Saisonniers (seasonal workers) to help with the harvest. Table saisons were low gravity but highly flavorful beers that quenched workers' thirsts while still satisfying workers' palates. This particular saison has a low alcohol (approx. 3.5%) with a touch of wheat and an invigorating blend of spices. A dry, tart finish with lots of earthy, peppery notes makes this saison the ultimate lawnmower beer!

Recommendations:

Primary fermantation: 75°-90°F, approx. 1 week

Secondary fermentation: 65°-75°F, 3-4 weeks
