I Fermented Belle Saison HOT!! (and won a medal)

I split a batch of Saison fermented with Lallemand Belle Saison. I fermented one warm (room temperature of 72°F [22°C]) and one warmer. My target was around 85°F [30°C] but due to a heat controller mishap, the beer reached up to 102°F [39°C] during active fermentation! In this video I evaluate both batches and share competition results. One of the beers was a medal in the 2023 Dominion Cup competition.
