    I know the city fairly well, but I'm always on the lookout for that little spot with an amazing tap list. Every once and a while I'll stumble onto a tap list with a good Italian/Belgian sour that makes my night.

    Does anyone have any tips on places that consistently put those offerings on draft? Thanks!

    Spuyten Duyvil in Brooklyn is your best bet. They never update their website or tap list, and they only have ~8 draft lines, but it's the only place in the city I've seen Cantillon on tap. Granted, this doesn't happen often, but when it does it's probably at Spuyten.

    Sours are hard to come by on tap but generally you can find something similar to Rodenbach over at Gingerman.

    Dive bar on 96th usually has something sour on tap, and I've had sour stuff at top hops as well

    I second Spuyten Duyvil. They usually have a bunch of interesting stuff you don't see elsewhere.
