I've never made one, but have it on my To Do LIst and would like any tips.

My recipe is in the SOTM article in the MHBA newsletter from somewhere
around June/July 2005. The version I added some Brettanomyces to has
taken a few medals. The White Labs Saison strains is great and you
can ferment it pretty warm 80-85 F didn't cause any problems, having a
temperature controlled fermenting box does come in handy for this strain
since it is rarely that warm in the house
Be sure to add a fair percentage of sugar to get the beer to finish dry,
sweet saisons aren't real pleasant.
