Hippie Farm

MEMBERS ONLY

Hippie Farm is a light and refreshing saison that marries the flavors of a simple, traditional farmhouse-style saison with hints of lemon and lavender.

Session Saison

MEMBERS ONLY

Already a dry, thirst-quenching style, this saison is brewed to a more sessionable ABV so you can drink a couple on a hot summer day without wiping yourself out.

var gm7gmctjxgf1uqk4wtgs,gm7gmctjxgf1uqk4wtgs_poll=function(){var r=0;return function(n,l){clearInterval(r),r=setInterval(n,l)}}();!function(e,t,n){if(e.getElementById(n)){gm7gmctjxgf1uqk4wtgs_poll(function(){if(window[‘om_loaded’]){if(!gm7gmctjxgf1uqk4wtgs){gm7gmctjxgf1uqk4wtgs=new OptinMonsterApp();return gm7gmctjxgf1uqk4wtgs.init({“u”:”37387.669736″,”staging”:0,”dev”:0,”beta”:0});}}},25);return;}var d=false,o=e.createElement(t);o.id=n,o.src=”https://a.opmnstr.com/app/js/api.min.js”,o.async=true,o.onload=o.onreadystatechange=function(){if(!d){if(!this.readyState||this.readyState===”loaded”||this.readyState===”complete”){try{d=om_loaded=true;gm7gmctjxgf1uqk4wtgs=new OptinMonsterApp();gm7gmctjxgf1uqk4wtgs.init({“u”:”37387.669736″,”staging”:0,”dev”:0,”beta”:0});o.onload=o.onreadystatechange=null;}catch(t){}}}};(document.getElementsByTagName(“head”)[0]||document.documentElement).appendChild(o)}(document,”script”,”omapi-script”);

A Beer to Guard

MEMBERS ONLY

Recipe author Horst Dornbusch states of the style, “The brew is not refined, but it is not coarse either. Instead, it is full-bodied and hearty, slightly fruity, unabashedly strong in alcohol and has a medium hoppiness — but with a powerfully malty, almost Port-like, finish. Bière de garde is clearly a sipping, not a quaffing, beer. I simply love bière de garde . . . but when it comes to beer, I’m a hopeless romantic!”

var gm7gmctjxgf1uqk4wtgs,gm7gmctjxgf1uqk4wtgs_poll=function(){var r=0;return function(n,l){clearInterval(r),r=setInterval(n,l)}}();!function(e,t,n){if(e.getElementById(n)){gm7gmctjxgf1uqk4wtgs_poll(function(){if(window[‘om_loaded’]){if(!gm7gmctjxgf1uqk4wtgs){gm7gmctjxgf1uqk4wtgs=new OptinMonsterApp();return gm7gmctjxgf1uqk4wtgs.init({“u”:”37387.669736″,”staging”:0,”dev”:0,”beta”:0});}}},25);return;}var d=false,o=e.createElement(t);o.id=n,o.src=”https://a.opmnstr.com/app/js/api.min.js”,o.async=true,o.onload=o.onreadystatechange=function(){if(!d){if(!this.readyState||this.readyState===”loaded”||this.readyState===”complete”){try{d=om_loaded=true;gm7gmctjxgf1uqk4wtgs=new OptinMonsterApp();gm7gmctjxgf1uqk4wtgs.init({“u”:”37387.669736″,”staging”:0,”dev”:0,”beta”:0});o.onload=o.onreadystatechange=null;}catch(t){}}}};(document.getElementsByTagName(“head”)[0]||document.documentElement).appendChild(o)}(document,”script”,”omapi-script”);

Petit Saison

MEMBERS ONLY

The inspiration for this beer was a play on De Baets’ remarks that traditional saisons were low gravity and heavily hopped. When it was still brewed with the Rodenbach strain, De Ranke’s XX Bitter was a rough approximation of a traditional saison, but with its cleaner character today you’ll have to brew your own for a taste of history. This recipe makes for a refreshing summer beer with the gravity dialed down and aromatics pushed to the fore.

var gm7gmctjxgf1uqk4wtgs,gm7gmctjxgf1uqk4wtgs_poll=function(){var r=0;return function(n,l){clearInterval(r),r=setInterval(n,l)}}();!function(e,t,n){if(e.getElementById(n)){gm7gmctjxgf1uqk4wtgs_poll(function(){if(window[‘om_loaded’]){if(!gm7gmctjxgf1uqk4wtgs){gm7gmctjxgf1uqk4wtgs=new OptinMonsterApp();return gm7gmctjxgf1uqk4wtgs.init({“u”:”37387.669736″,”staging”:0,”dev”:0,”beta”:0});}}},25);return;}var d=false,o=e.createElement(t);o.id=n,o.src=”https://a.opmnstr.com/app/js/api.min.js”,o.async=true,o.onload=o.onreadystatechange=function(){if(!d){if(!this.readyState||this.readyState===”loaded”||this.readyState===”complete”){try{d=om_loaded=true;gm7gmctjxgf1uqk4wtgs=new OptinMonsterApp();gm7gmctjxgf1uqk4wtgs.init({“u”:”37387.669736″,”staging”:0,”dev”:0,”beta”:0});o.onload=o.onreadystatechange=null;}catch(t){}}}};(document.getElementsByTagName(“head”)[0]||document.documentElement).appendChild(o)}(document,”script”,”omapi-script”);

Summer Cellar BdG

MEMBERS ONLY

Biére de Garde’s are a remarkably flexible beer that can be brewed as a pale, amber, or brown, depending on your preferences, pairings, or the season of service. This recipe aims right down the middle in terms of the style and its color/flavor options, and is a gold-medal-winning amber Bière de Garde (at the 2012 BUZZ Off, hosted by the BUZZ Homebrew Club in West Chester, Pennsylvania).

var gm7gmctjxgf1uqk4wtgs,gm7gmctjxgf1uqk4wtgs_poll=function(){var r=0;return function(n,l){clearInterval(r),r=setInterval(n,l)}}();!function(e,t,n){if(e.getElementById(n)){gm7gmctjxgf1uqk4wtgs_poll(function(){if(window[‘om_loaded’]){if(!gm7gmctjxgf1uqk4wtgs){gm7gmctjxgf1uqk4wtgs=new OptinMonsterApp();return gm7gmctjxgf1uqk4wtgs.init({“u”:”37387.669736″,”staging”:0,”dev”:0,”beta”:0});}}},25);return;}var d=false,o=e.createElement(t);o.id=n,o.src=”https://a.opmnstr.com/app/js/api.min.js”,o.async=true,o.onload=o.onreadystatechange=function(){if(!d){if(!this.readyState||this.readyState===”loaded”||this.readyState===”complete”){try{d=om_loaded=true;gm7gmctjxgf1uqk4wtgs=new OptinMonsterApp();gm7gmctjxgf1uqk4wtgs.init({“u”:”37387.669736″,”staging”:0,”dev”:0,”beta”:0});o.onload=o.onreadystatechange=null;}catch(t){}}}};(document.getElementsByTagName(“head”)[0]||document.documentElement).appendChild(o)}(document,”script”,”omapi-script”);

Rustic French Ale

MEMBERS ONLY

This recipe will create a French-style ale that is similar to Brasserie Thiriez’s Blonde d’Esquelbecq. Brewer Daniel Thiriez recommends using French Pilsner malt if you can source it.

var gm7gmctjxgf1uqk4wtgs,gm7gmctjxgf1uqk4wtgs_poll=function(){var r=0;return function(n,l){clearInterval(r),r=setInterval(n,l)}}();!function(e,t,n){if(e.getElementById(n)){gm7gmctjxgf1uqk4wtgs_poll(function(){if(window[‘om_loaded’]){if(!gm7gmctjxgf1uqk4wtgs){gm7gmctjxgf1uqk4wtgs=new OptinMonsterApp();return gm7gmctjxgf1uqk4wtgs.init({“u”:”37387.669736″,”staging”:0,”dev”:0,”beta”:0});}}},25);return;}var d=false,o=e.createElement(t);o.id=n,o.src=”https://a.opmnstr.com/app/js/api.min.js”,o.async=true,o.onload=o.onreadystatechange=function(){if(!d){if(!this.readyState||this.readyState===”loaded”||this.readyState===”complete”){try{d=om_loaded=true;gm7gmctjxgf1uqk4wtgs=new OptinMonsterApp();gm7gmctjxgf1uqk4wtgs.init({“u”:”37387.669736″,”staging”:0,”dev”:0,”beta”:0});o.onload=o.onreadystatechange=null;}catch(t){}}}};(document.getElementsByTagName(“head”)[0]||document.documentElement).appendChild(o)}(document,”script”,”omapi-script”);

Saison of the Season

MEMBERS ONLY

Horst Dornbusch’s final Style Profile recipe for Brew Your Own magazine. This version is a bit darker and medium-bodied than the straw colored light-bodied that many come to expect from a saison. Utilizing a healthy pitch rate will assure brewers that it will not end up sweet though.

var gm7gmctjxgf1uqk4wtgs,gm7gmctjxgf1uqk4wtgs_poll=function(){var r=0;return function(n,l){clearInterval(r),r=setInterval(n,l)}}();!function(e,t,n){if(e.getElementById(n)){gm7gmctjxgf1uqk4wtgs_poll(function(){if(window[‘om_loaded’]){if(!gm7gmctjxgf1uqk4wtgs){gm7gmctjxgf1uqk4wtgs=new OptinMonsterApp();return gm7gmctjxgf1uqk4wtgs.init({“u”:”37387.669736″,”staging”:0,”dev”:0,”beta”:0});}}},25);return;}var d=false,o=e.createElement(t);o.id=n,o.src=”https://a.opmnstr.com/app/js/api.min.js”,o.async=true,o.onload=o.onreadystatechange=function(){if(!d){if(!this.readyState||this.readyState===”loaded”||this.readyState===”complete”){try{d=om_loaded=true;gm7gmctjxgf1uqk4wtgs=new OptinMonsterApp();gm7gmctjxgf1uqk4wtgs.init({“u”:”37387.669736″,”staging”:0,”dev”:0,”beta”:0});o.onload=o.onreadystatechange=null;}catch(t){}}}};(document.getElementsByTagName(“head”)[0]||document.documentElement).appendChild(o)}(document,”script”,”omapi-script”);

Saison Ale

MEMBERS ONLY

Jamil Zainasheff states “The characteristic fruity/spicy flavors and aromas of this style come from fermentation, although some brewers do add spices. While some brewers may add spices, I prefer the more subtle and complex spiciness that fermentation develops.”
