Hi,
I have a few very tasty barrel aged Brett beers and I just started with a few (fruit) saisons. Now that I have a few empty barrels I was thinking of aging a saison in these barrels (230 liter, french oak, Bordeaux, used for just 1 season).
Is there somebody who has experience aging French saisons on oak, what does it do with the flavors.
The French saison is pretty tart/sour, I can imagine I get a more mellowed out version with oak and wine character.
Any input is welcome.
Cheers,
Wilbert
