    You might want to check out the Untappd beer finder for Off Color Bare Bear. It's listed here as a Sahti. There are a lot of recent check-ins on Untappd for this, and they appear to be from all over.

    As for the Gruit, Williams Alba Scots Pine used to be available here (and if we get it, pretty much everyone else does) but I haven't seen it in quite a while. Again, check the Untappd check-ins.

    If any of you tickers find yourself in northeast Iowa, look for PIVO's Decorah Nordic Gruit. It was the gold medal winner, 2023 WBC, in the Historical Beer category. It is available on tap at several places in the Cedar Valley, but visit the PIVO taproom in Calmar if you can. It's worth the trip.

    I was checking out The Seed's website to see what they have packaged for pickup and what do you know, the have Danko (rye beer/roggenbier).

    Anyone from Atlantic City? I go there from time to time but not sure whether it will still be there when I visit them next.

    His daughter is lobbying for this place -- her day, so I may not hear.

    Note the Champagne Velvet in prominent images. Some have been asking about that (looks like it was you), but I haven't suggested it to him.

    Can’t blame her, looks like an interesting place w/ a lot of history.
    Might have to check it out myself. Thanks!

    I've only seen it just once, and I believe it just released from a local my way, though it's not 'vanilla' as it's Pinot noir BA

    Yeah I feel you, it's very easy to get out of hand with Tavour. I was bad with it for a few months there but I've thankfully slowed down on it a bit

    Beats me mate, I've never tried the style!

    Though that brewery in particular, I either love or think theirs are 'meh'

    I believe No Drought, a small brewery in Spokane Valley that tends towards European styles, has a roggenbier on semi-regularly.
