This distinctive recipe combines rice, millet, corn, buckwheat, and quinoa to create a remarkably dry, highly drinkable beer with subtle grain complexity and a crisp finish. Traditional Spalt and Saaz hops complement the expressive French Saison yeast, producing delicate spicy, herbal, and fruity notes that make this refreshing Belgian-inspired ale perfect for warm weather and adventurous homebrewers.
