\"Oso<\/a>Can we talk about sours for a minute here? You\u2019ve no doubt noticed an uptick in sour beer production over the last few years. And quite a few of them are pretty approachable even for those who haven\u2019t previously enjoyed them. Seems like every time we put a sour up to another beer in any given month, the sour is considerably more popular.<\/p>\n

Of our 24 annual selections<\/a>, we\u2019ve run anywhere from 4-6 sours each year over the last 3 years. Thinking about doing more, but we want to make sure we\u2019re keeping everyone happy as much as possible. One way to do it is to offer more sours via special offers. In fact, we\u2019re thinking an ALL SOUR special offer. Okay, so we\u2019re not just thinking it, we\u2019re doing it.<\/p>\n

Anybody heard of O\u2019so Brewing Company in Plover, Wisconsin? I hadn\u2019t until one of the guys on our SEO team sent me a bottle of Space Ace Oddity, a one-off run of a brett-fermented double dry-hopped Belgian white IPA made to commemorate the work of David Bowie. Really nice beer. We liked it so much that we\u2019re having them brew us another batch just for our members which will be exclusively featured in May this year.<\/p>\n

But we\u2019re talkin\u2019 about sours here, right? Right. Marc Buttera, founder, CEO and super cool cat, sent me a care package like I have not received in a few years that included twelve 750s, half of them pretty damned amazing sours. It was really hard to pick just 4, but we suffered through it and are running with the following in our July 2017 Rare Beer Club special offer:<\/p>\n
