A farmhouse ale with roselle hibiscus. The inspiration was to make a simple beer with a subtle adjunct.
To make Mr. Mingo, we brewed a simple saison with barley and wheat from Blacklands Malt and raw Texas Hill Country water from our onsite well. We added hibiscus flowers at the end of the boil and then later dry hopped with more. In total, we used around 1 pound of hibiscus per barrel.

Bottle: Poured a light reddish color ale with a large foamy head with light retention and minimal lacing. Aroma of tart notes with some hibiscus and light funky notes. Taste is also a mix of hibiscus and light funky notes with some tart notes. Body is about average with good carbonation. Easy to drink with great refreshing notes.
