Que ce qu'elle a dit.

This will be a fun one. Another 'clone' of sorts, as well as being the first beer that I have made from bottle cloned yeast. Meaning I bought a bottle of the beer in question, drank the beer, and dumped the remaining yeast into some prepared wort for it to propagate.
It took some time- probably four days- before I really saw fermentation activity, and another two before it seemed to really get going. But it did, and it worked. The yeast had a great Belgian beer aroma when I added it to the fermentor.
This is my version of Saxo by Brasserie Caracole. I have long said this is one of my favorites. A nice mellow Belgian Strong ale. I was able to gain some information about what was in this beer both from the book Brew like a Monk and the website of the importer. Pilsner malt, munich malt, raw wheat, coriander, saaz hops, the starting gravity of 1.065. Lots of information to make an informed guess.
Thus, I present to you Que ce qu'elle a dit - That's what she said.
7 lb 7 oz Pilsner
1 lb 9 oz sugar
1 lb Munich malt
1 lb Flaked wheat
.5 oz Czech Saaz pellet @90 min
.5 oz Czech Saaz pellet @15 min
.5 oz Czech Saaz pellet @10 min
.5 oz toasted and crushed coriander seed @10 min
.5 oz Czech Saaz pellet @5 min
1 oz Czech Saaz pellet @0 min
Ferment with Caracole yeast cultured from the bottle
11/30/10- Mash for 90 min @ 148 with 3.75 gal water. Sparged with -8 gal water. Collected 8 gal or so, didn't boil enough off and ended up over volume and slightly under gravity. But that's ok. Tastes good, yeast smells good.
12/1/10- Active fermentation by this morning.
