I'll be in Columbus, OH this weekend and want to know the must-try beers there besides Bodhi, which is amazing. Also, are there any good sours available there? I'm coming from Texas, so we get a few, but not sure if there are any local breweries that are making a good sour right now.
The closest you'll get is Rivertown in Cincinnati. A few of their bottles are on shelves in Columbus and are pretty good, though if you're looking for something along the lines of Jester King, you'll be disappointed.
As far as Columbus goes, Brothers Drake did a sour version of their paw paw mead that you can still find in some shops for $30/bottle... but that's the dirty M-word that shouldn't be spoken of on this site. I second @masterofsparks Rivertown does some tasty sours (can sometimes find here), as does Jackie O's (will not find their sours here - though you could potentially line up some in-person trades for your visit).
I knew about The Bruery and we just got Jolly Pumkin in Texas. Both are great and I bet might be my best bet. Thanks guys!
You should visit Seventh Son Brewing Co. and St James Tavern (both are a block away from one another) while you're here. St James is a real low key place and Seventh Son is an up and comer in the area. St James should still have FFF Panzer on draft... http://www.beermenus.com/places/15786-st-james-tavern Cheers!
