Sour beers are where it's at

Breweries are everywhere now but when I go and there isn’t even one sour on the list I get really disappointed.

I had the best sour a few weekends ago in NH. I really wish there was a wider variety around. They’re always my favorite. Love a good stout too.

It's true. Especially on the east coast.

I was down in Austin not long ago. Went to Jester King. Wow, cool brewery, and really good sours

Throwback brewery at Hobbs farm in North Hampton. Food was really good too!

So many breweries half ass a sour, Victory-style.

It's true. But I also hate the flavored sours. Where they're literally adding flavoring to beer.

I'm currently enjoying Axe & Arrow. Honestly great with actual fruit.

If youre in the PNW you should try to get to Cascade in Portland Oregon. The best sours and some of the best beer I've ever had.

Love Cascade. Haven't been there, but I buy their beer out here in NJ.

I got started on sours because of them

Oh wow I didnt know they shipped out to the east coast. I had only ever seen their stuff out west.

It's nice to have variety, but I'd like to be able to buy a tall can of an amber ale or something on my way home from work.

Oh absolutely. It's good to have at least one beer you can always come back to. For me that's been the Dogfish Head Sea Quench Ale
