mikkeller yeast series 2.0

Having had a few from the older series Mikkeller I had to pick these up. The brett brux version was great, had all the fruity, funky 'brett' flavors you come to expect. Brett lambicus, though was pretty unremarkable. Having recently brewed a saison that used brett lambicus in secondary fermentation, I kind of knew what to expect. I noticed a particular, subtle, not necessarily pleasant sour quality in this Mikkeller with brett lambicus that was also present in our home brew. This yeast definitely works better when used in conjunction with other yeasts and bacteria.
