Picked up a bottle of this stuff. It's the only beer I could find that is brewed with some brett. I'm trying to get an idea of whether or not experimenting with brett is something I want to do. This, sadly, is the only brett beer I have been able to find thus far.
I haven't opened it yet. I'm letting it chill for a day and will possibly try it tomorrow evening. I'll chime in then to offer up my brett-virgin experience with this beer.
What I do know is that it apparently isn't an accurate representation of an old-ale style, which it claims to be. That's fine with me, I'm just wanting to find out what this horse blanket thing is all about. I am a bit nervous though. One review I read about it included comments where the reviewer accused the brewery as passing off an infected batch of sub-par beer as old-ale. This same reviewer claimed that prison pruno tastes better.
If anyone here has tried this yet, please chime in. Prepare me for what I will be partaking in.
EDIT: Oh, forgot to mention that I scored a single bottle of Orval too. I've heard it has a bit of brett in it as well.
