This is their Golden Ox using Brett in some fashion. It appears darker than the base, almost copper. Head and lacing are nice, however. Nose is similar to base, but with a definite addition of tartness.

Taste is a combination of the fruity base and presumed Brett additions. Mildly tart apple, lemon-lime soda, orange zest intertwined, with hints of raspberry as the taste fades. The feel has some effervescence up front, but it fades a bit fast.

The somewhat muddled taste combined with the feel didn't work for me. The base beer, while a bit sweeter, seemed better defined. Interesting try here, but not a winner in my book.
