Batch number six - Belgian Saison

Brewing again! Today's is a Belgian Saison. The original inspiration for this beer was a saison that I drank in Bethlehem. The citrus flavor really grabbed me. Recipe:

6.6 lb. Munton's Light Malt Extract
1 lb. Munton & Fison Wheat Dry Malt
1 lb. Light Belgian Candi Sugar
1/2 lb. Weyermann Cara-Helles Malt 9ยบ L
1 oz. Northern Brewer Hops (Bittering)
1/2 oz. Kent Golding U.K. Hops (Flavoring)
1/2 oz. Bitter Curacao (orange peel) (Flavoring)
1/2 oz. Kent Golding U.K. Hops (Finishing)
Wyeast # 1214XL Belgian Abbey Ale Yeast

The folks at Keystone say to expect:

OG 1.054-1.060
FG 1.010-1.015

I will likely write more on this, but I have to buy some ice!
