Ambient Pulse is a mixed ferment saison brewed with raw barley from Good Family Farms. To brighten things up a bit, I lowered the IBUs to let a bit more acid develop. This gives Ambient Pulse a nice zip while still maintaining a good balance of character.
As with most of the Bespoke Barrel Society beers, this was coolshipped, then barrel fermented for six months. I did something different on this beer than I have in the past, I added hops to the coolship and let the beer rest on the hops overnight as it cooled down. I think you get a touch more hop expression out of it, and admittedly, I was hoping for a bit more bitterness from the longer contact time.
