Looking for amazing sours in Ohio.

Where in Ohio are you?

 

Rivertown Lambic and Gueuze aren't too hard to find. Jackie O's does good stuff, but not as easy to get.

 

Tilquin Gueuze and Drie Fontein Oude Gueuze are literally everywhere as well as Intense Red if you are into 17 bucks a bottle. Rodenbach is around sometimes and Monks Cafe is a readily available average sourish beer.

Also Jolly Pumpkin. Biere de Mars should be out soon and you can never go wrong with La Roja.

 

Honestly, if you can find bottles of the Birra Del Borgo Duchessic, give it a shot. It's a blend of their Italian saison with 1 year old unblended Cantillon lambic. Best of both worlds. Bottle price is a bit steep (9.99 for an 11.2oz) but it is tasty enough to more than make up for it, IMO.

As mentioned, Drie Fonteinen, Jolly Pumpkin, Jackie O's (especially try to get your hands on Dynamo Hum from a BA who went to the release, this batch was AWESOME stuff).

 

Keep an eye out for Thirsty Dog Cerasus. I've had it on tap a few times and I always love it.

 

Indigo Imp Luster was pretty tasty - it was missing some carbonation though. Actual Brewing in Columbus has a berliner out now - I thought it was only so-so especially at the $10-11 price point for a Berliner.

Not from Ohio but is an underrated shelf beer IMHO. http://www.beeradvocate.com/beer/profile/11974/33855/

 

Watch for Jackie O's sours, you can only get them at one of the release parties so you could either go to one or try to trade with someone.

Rivertown makes some sours, some better than others. Ojos Negros is one of my favorite sours, it should be coming back in a few months I think.

 

Cisco's The Woods series

Lady in the woods is at a couple Columbus shops. Anderson's in Dublin, Corner Stone off Parsons Ave and Broad, and Savor Market are a couple places that have it sitting on shelves.

I haven't seen Pechish Woods anywhere in awhile and Kriek was release last week.
