Blueberry Saison

Blueberry Saison
OG 1.054
FG 1.004

5lbs Wheat Malt
3lbs Pale DME
1oz  Hallertau (@ 60min)
1oz  Hallertau (@ 30min)
1oz Saaz (@ 10min)
Wyeast 3711 French Saison
6lbs frozen Blueberries (In Secondary)

This one turned out alright. I don't think I would make it again though. I think fruit is more suited to a yeast that does not ferment out all the sugars. Tastes slightly medical. Here are some shots:

  1. I love blueberries, but I can see what you mean about a yeast that uses all the sugars. I would age a few bottles and see if the flavor comes around. I've had ciders that take 6 months or so to really have a good apple taste.
