Kayla and I have been thinking about experimenting more with Brettanomyces. We did ferment our Berliner Weisse with brett but that also had other bugs. After researching through the various homebrew blogs, this is what we came up with for a first try. Our hope is that we get a rustic saison that has equal parts funk and hops.
