Gooseberry Saison

I'll start by saying the only thing saison about this is that I used saison yeast, Bell's Saison.
Grain bill
5 pounds of Maris Otter
4 pounds of white wheat malt
Boil
1 oz Fuggles at 60
1/2 oz Fuggles at 15
1/2 oz Fuggles at 0
Fermented till gravity was at 1.010 then added 7 pounds of gooseberries.


On tap for the 4th weekend. Gooseberry flavor compliments the saison very nicely.
