Sounds really good. Mine is carbing now, will tap later this week. If you or anyone else want to trade some bottles of this let me know.Tapped. Very dry, complex, spicy, a little floral, firmly bitter but not too much and very refreshing. Really nice mouthfeel to it. Kinda cant believe I made this. This is going to be nice to have on tap for the second half of summer. Anyone else tap theirs yet? Impressions?

MIne is cloudy too but I was kind of expecting that with 3724. Not sure I've ever had a crystal clear saison. This one definitely has that "wild side" as referred to in FA. To me the cloudiness kind of just goes along with that.

FWIW, I used WLP 550 and mine is cloudy. I attribute it to the spelt.

I'm sure it's the yeast. Most Belgian yeasts are very attenuative and therefore flocculate poorly.could be the Rye Malt I suppose

I did a triple with the yeast from this batch, damn thing dropped all way to 1.001

Meanwhile, I tasted a sample of the beer and it's awesome although pretty sweet still.
Yeah we are enjoying ours over here quite a bit.

Same here! I will snap a pic later this weekend and post it up. I also have this beer entered in a contest with the brewery that supplied the yeast. Should find out this weekend, first place and I will be invited to brew on there system.
