Dave's BrewFarm Hull Melon Single Hop Saison, 6.4 % ABV.

Appearance: hazy, bright golden hue, short-lived, slim white head, shortens to a tight ring.

Aroma: Sweet, fruity nose, with, yes, melon leading the charge. Is that why they're called Hull Melon hops? Maybe some tropical fruit notes, just a little bit of citrus, but, man, it's a "melon bomb." (A little research show that Hull Melon was developed in Germany only two years ago.)

Taste: More fruit, more yum, and just enough bitterness to keep it fun. Smooth malt, just a touch of saison yeast funk. Easy-drinking as they come. Light-ish body, nicely hopped, plenty of farmhouse flavors and this delicious fruity hoppiness.

I gobbled down this growler, and it went smashingly with my chicken pad thai.
