Wyeast and The Vineyard are having a Saison Summer
Posted by Neil Bamford, July 5th, 2015 | 0 Comments
As our temperatures are hopefully rising in our home breweries it brings with it ideal conditions for Saison style beers. Wyeast has announced 3 cultures to fit this bill. We will have a few coming in later this week but will take orders for any additional requests as we generally order Wyeast 2 or 3 time a month.
