Overall Impression:
I had this right after Ommegang Hennepin, and I very much prefer this over that. It is more complex, more interesting and more flavorful. It is also a lot more expensive, and there are other American Btrett Ales / Brett Saison's out there that I like better. If you have the coin, go for it!
