    I've been looking through BA so I can get a basic idea but I figure it's best to ask the locals. I'm headed out next week for a quick work trip and would love to be able to find some good AZ wilderness stuff or geuze type stuff I can't get in Texas(Drie fon, tilquin, Hansen, etc).

    For the gueze type stuff, AJ's Fine Foods or Whole Foods are probably your best options (for the breweries you have listed). AZ Wilderness doesn't can/bottle/distribute their kegs really, so your best bet is to check out the brewery. OHSO, Sun Up, Fate, and North Mountain are some other sweet spots you should hit up if you have the time; they don't get as much attention as AZW but are all just as good in their own respects, IMO.

    Tops and Sun Devil and the various Total Wine locations have more lambic then anywhere I've seen. There was De Cam and Lambickx on the shelf three days ago at Tops. Last time I saw any Drie it was Total Wine Emerald Center. I basically never see Tilquin or Cantillon or Hansens.
    Liquor Express and Gilbert Convenient mart will have good selections of American stuff y'all dont get in Texas in case that's of interest.

    Like most places around the country good Belgian lambics rarely are on the shelves for very long. The attic may have Cantillon but for consumption on site only. No takeaways. Arizona Wilderness is only at their place but taste before you buy. While many of their beers are unique that doesn't mean they are all good.
