Good information on fermentation, FGs with Saison versus Grissette versus a Bier De Garde, and how Brett impacts the beer over 6 months' time. I also enjoyed hearing about barrel aging and the importance of adding lactose and candied sugar at the end of the boil in order to prevent the beer from drying out over the 6 months of barrel aging. Really entertaining and educational!
Great content. Very thorough and straight to the point.
Lots of information presented fast, take good notes. The warning about bret was very useful.
