This is a very special release for us at House of Funk (and specifically the Hollett family).
Diana is a beer dedicated to a woman dear to our hearts - our Auntie Diane - who we feel embodied everything that this beer is - wild, elegant and beautiful. Auntie Diane passed away a couple of years ago around the time we were in the construction phase of building our brewery. Being a fan of craft beer and all things awesome in life, we made her a promise before she left us that we would brew and name a beer after her - thus Diana Brett Saison was born.
This beer is brewed with barley, wheat, rye, buckwheat, spelt and oats; hopped with Loral and fermented directly in barrel with Brettanomyces and a house saison yeast culture.

Botella. Hazy, pale colour. Head froths up but is kind of weak. Nice earthy brett nose, a bit leather and barrel. A bit of fruitiness - seems like from the hops, and a lot of bretty, barrely notes. Some grainy complexity. I like this one - complex, easy going saison with a balanced character.

On tap at House of Funk, pours a clear pale golden blonde with a small white head. Aroma is grainy, with lots of spelt and oats, rustic saison yeast, and gentle brett funk. Flavour is along the same lines, with rustic saison yeast, spelt, buckwheat, oats, and a touch of brett. Rustic and spicy, with a dry finish. Very nice.
