    Sour and hops are a killer combo...Batch 60, Funk'd Citra and Hop Bu are probably my favorite sours right now. Anyone else have other suggestions?

    Gose Gone Wild was exemplary, so good.

    If you can find it, none are better than Cantillon Iris. Just the best there is.

    The latest batch is excellent, but last week they also released the newest batch of Cuvee St. Gilloise which is also fantastic.

    Closer to home, both the original and chardonnay/citra versons of Pizza Boy Hoptart were great.

    Not really a fan of dry hopped lambics/sours but Brett beers are awsome. Iris is probably my least fav Cantillon, didn't like Mikkeller belt gueuze either.

    Give me Brett beer like orval or crooked stave hop savant and I'm loving it.

    Recently had Eik Zon, a sour IPA from Arbor brewing. It was dry-hopped with Simcoe and orange peel and had an amazing aroma of citrus, dank pine, brett, and sourness, the flavor was a bit lacking IMO though. Still I love what we Americans are starting to do with the style.

    Absolutely loved Gose Gone Wild.

    Le Terroir was probably the first dry-hopped sour I ever had. Dug it then and dig it now.

    Amorous from Wicked Weed was pretty darn good. It's definitely the best one so far in their Royal Cache series.

    I'm still not quite sure why every style of beer needs more hops.

    Agreed. I like a lot of hoppy beers, but with sours I feel like strong hopping competes [badly] with the sourness rather than complements it. I feel the same way about hops in barrel-aged beers and smoked/roasted beers... To each their own though.

    Egregious by The Rare Barrel is my new fave. Smells like a fruity IPA with a nice lactic sour bite.

    Trinity Red Swingline. As good as, if not better than, Batch 60.
