So I just ran my first contest here on Steemit. It had a whopping 2 entries! Gotta start somewhere, right?! If you'd like to check it out and join in the next one (which should be up in a day or two for IPAs) here's the link to the last: https://steemit.com/contest/@webstar/beer-contest
Since there were only the two entries I decided to pretty much split it down the middle with the winner getting the extra penny or so from the pay out. That being said, congrats to 
I think I will dub the contest "Beer Money" in the hopes that in the future it will pay for the beers featured by the winners.
Hope see a few more people join in the following ones!
Now on to my post for days 6 & 7 of the Seven Day Beer Challenge.
I purposely skipped a day so I could do a two in one today. The reason for this is the Dark Light series from Field House Brewing. They put out these two Saisons, one dark and one light, different hops, both done with Brett. I wanted to try them side by side. They are two very different beers.
Let's start with the Dark -
It poured a dark caramel colour with a thick frothy head. As I said they used Brett in this beer along with Eldorado and Mosaic hops. This gave it a tangy citrus and fig type flavour. Being a dark beer it had a slightly chocolatey after taste and maybe an unroasted coffee type flavour. I just realized now that it clocked in at 10%! Sure goes down easy for such a high percentage. It has a little heat, but I never would have guessed it was that heavy.
The Light -
This one poured a golden straw colour with a good amount of pillowy head. This version, also fermented with Brettanomyces, used Nelson Sauvin and Hallertau Blanc hops. This gave it juicy white wine characteristics as well as a bit of barnyard funk, and hay flavours. These were complemented with some citrus and stone fruit and a dry finish.
Both really good beers, I still haven't had anything from Field House I didn't like. A solid brewery!
Cheers!
