It seems that a common complaint on this forum is "I don't have access to commercial sours in my area/commercial sours are too expensive so I can only acquire commercial lab pitches." I encounter those same problems in my area, though sometimes I venture outside of my home range and come across some good sour beers. Next month, I'll be going to my niece's graduation party, and wouldn't you know, there's a Jolly Pumpkin brew pub just a short drive away (and another sour producer I'm excited to try). For something I know is going to be really good, and with the added bonus of collecting a few bugs along the way, price isn't the greatest impediment to me. However, beers like Jester King, 3 Fonteinen, Cantillon, Russian River, etc. still elude me. (but man, I can get all the Michelob Golden Light I want!)
Anybody interested in trading vials of collected dregs? Shipping a small vial within North America can't be that expensive, and much cheaper than shipping beers. I know MTF had a FB group for trading cultures/bugs (private group I just learned of and requested entry today), but I also know not everyone has or is interested in a FB account.
Anyhow, I'm willing when I have things if others are interested.
