This summer we used elderflower in a saison - and it was a revelation. The floral aroma, and the way the subtle hedgerow notes match with spicy yeast, seemed perfect for a dry saison. Elderberries have some of the same qualities toned down and with the interesting addition of powerful dark fruit and slightly different flavour. The berries slowly infused their flavour over several months in the barrel, they also give the beer it's amazing purple colour
