Dave's BrewFarm Topaz Single Hop Saison. 6.4% ABV.

Hazed golden appearance, slim head, starts small but drifts down quickly.

Aroma: funky, fresh, floral, tart, wild, lightly citric, overpowered by yeast. Interesting complexity.

Drink it up: a mess of yeast. sunny, citrus-y hop character. Light malt. Some banana notes emerge. They mix with some citric notes and a wicked kind of Beligan yeast funk. Ends definitively on the dry side. Grows increasingly tasty. Sweetness matches with some spice, overcome by yeast.

A terrific saison, although I couldn't pinpoint what the characteristics of the Topaz are that might set it apart. I enjoyed the drinking, though.
