Hey all,
I have a picky pallette...some beers I LOVE, but others, I cant stomach. The reason i say this is that I dont like ANY Belgian beers that I have had. The yeast profile just tastes nasty to me. Friends will say, "oh, but you have to try this one"...nope, dont like it!
Normally, I just wont drink them if I dont like them and drink something different, but funny thing, I bought a Boulevard Tank 7 and absolutely loved it! Nice and fruity with none of that nasty "Belgian" aftertaste. So, I also bought a local farmhouse ale by a small brewery called Lickinghole Creek...hated it. These are the only two that I have had.
I would love to brew something similar to Boulevard, but I am nervous about having 5 gallons of after taste beer.
So, My question is this: Do Saisons normally have a belgian yeast flavor profile, or are they more citrusy....like Tank 7?
sorry to be long winded, but I wanted to explain where I am coming from
Thanks for your input,
Chris
