        <content>My husband loves Flemish style sours.  Does anyone have any fairly easy to find rec's (I'm in MA)?

Thanks a bunch!</content>

      <content>Thanks to the recent "discovery" of bretts and beer, there are now a ton of good sour beers on the market that are fairly easy to find.  Here are a few recs (all I think should be available in MA):

1. Rodenbach Grand Cru
2. Allagash Interlude
3. Ommegang Rouge
4. Portsmouth Flanders Red
5. Duchesse De Bourgogne
6. Rodenbacj Classic

Again, I think these are available in Mass.  I know the Belgian beers definitely should be available at a local BevMo or Whole Foods, but I'm less certain regarding the American wild ales.  Hope this helps!</content>

      <content>Thanks!
We don't have BevMo here, but I'll ask my friendly, neighborhood booze man and see what he can come up with.  </content>

      <content>Monk's Cafe Sour Ale also seems readily available (here in CA), and might be in MA as well.</content>

      <content>They used to make a FANTASTIC sour ale here...http://www.willibrew.com/
but I don't see it being brewed at this time.
It's worth checking out anyway.
A GREAT brewpub!</content>
