Petite Saison d'Ete Extract Beer Recipe Kit

'Tis the Saison to be Jolly!

The Petite Saison d'Ete was the sixth Northern Brewer kit I have tried. Once again I was pleased with the results. Directions were clear and the beer was easy to make. Ultimately the flavor is most important, and it was good. But I found my finished product was much darker than the "tawny gold" described on the website. I had the same result with the Irish Blonde Ale ... a much darker beer than expected. Is this more common when using an extract kit versus starting with all grains?

This beer is still conditioning for a few more days. I did sneak a taste when bottling and I believe it will be a nice summer brew. As usual, the brewing instructions were clear and the ingredients were all there as advertised. Another good experience with Northern.

don't overlook Belgium
