    So a group of us are trying to trade to get together a really nice list of Apricot sours for a tasting. We already have Fantasia, Apricot Bu, Imperial Apricot Bu, Grrrz Apricot, and Fou Foune. We're going to try land a West Ashley, but do you guys have any other suggestions for Apricot sours worth trading for?

    Wicked Weed is releasing Golden Angel this coming weekend. Its an apricot sour, and if its as good as Red Angel was, then I'd say its definitely worth trading for.

    In addition to those already mentioned...

    Pizza Boy Apricotfunker
    The Rare Barrel Map of the Sun
    Almanac Valley of the Heart's Delight

    The last 2 should be fairly easy to get, the first might be tougher due to 100 bottles total, 1pp, $30/btl, one-off (to date) release.

    10 Barrel Apricot Crush is pretty outstanding... Hasn't been on in Boise for a while, but it appears it is on at the Portland pub.

    That Upright Anniversary Saison is a nice one to add, IMHO, because it is, I believe, aged in barrels that held Fantasia. It's not fruited, per se, but picks up some notes from the Fantasia. It's sort of a good palate cleanser between the sourer or more fruit forward beers ... and relatively easy to get.

    Just FYI Fantasia is a peach beer, not apricot. But your list otherwise is very solid!

    Proclamation Harper killed it at the Boston festival from what I heard, no idea on bottle availability however.
