Shopped at Natural Grocers on 23rd St for the first time yesterday. They have quite an extensive offering of sugars - date, cane, beet, raw, turbino, etc. And lots of rolled grains. Will be a good resource for brewing adjuncts.
I'm still a Merc man, though.

From experience, if you use Succant sugar, don't use a lot, it is very strong once fermented. Or use it in something that that rummy, molasses flavor would agree with, not so much in a lighter saison...

I use just regular cane/table sugar in my Saison.
