I followed the 3-sour rule. (On three separate days). First one slapped me upside the head. Complete foreign concept. The second one I knew what to expect and I said to myself, “I think I can do his.” By the end of my third I was completely enjoying it.I dunno dude, it was a little too much for me!

I'd also recommend going with the classics. Not a new brewery. Get a feeling of the core style before reaching out. It's hard to hit Brett perfectly and trying to appreciate something that is the original will help you get the bike rolling. Doing a flight of aged brews help you separates what you like. Brett can go wild to tame in a year. Like Orval. For me around year 7 is a real turning point. There's a period of before and after where it goes crazy wild and sublime. Then exits out. Temp is a big influencer. Don't be afraid to see what happens as it warms up. Again I think new breweries miss this.

Seems that we are talking about two different albeit similar things. Beers brewed with lactobacillus are often sours (kettle or not), and those should not be confused with beers that are brewed with brettanomyces. You can introduce Brett to nearly any style...I wouldn't say the same thing with lactobacillus.

Beer. Because you can’t drink bacon.
Wow, what a find! Now this is a sour I can enjoy! It's from the Wild Beer Co. in the UK. Sour cherry, spice and a peppery finish. Almost like a sour lambic. Amazing beer!

I just checked out the can, and this particular 'Brett Saison' has both Brettanomyces and Saccharomyces, so maybe it's not a strict Brett beer. Not sure if I would try one of these again, but maybe I'll find one I'll enjoy. Hey, I love Gose beers, so I'm sure there's a sour saison out there!
HB Peanut Butter Imperial Stout
Now that's a nice clean glass
I love trying out different regions of the country's concept of NEIPA.

I thought about that after I replied, but left it. In my experience it seems a lot of people who don't like sours also don't like saisons. May be a small sample size though.

Agreed! Also, trying not to burn through these Imperial Stouts in 2 weeks. Smaller glasses...
Post work beer on this beautiful afternoon.
Maybe a shot of whiskey

I’ll be right next door from there at Mekong for a family dinner over the thanksgiving holiday. Driving down this year. I’m loading up the wives 4Runner with RVA beers to bring back home.
HB SMaSH. Working on bottling of the kegs more often now. Brewing more while working from home means more beer

Have a feeling your cold and mine are 2 different things. Out voting and people in line wearing full ski/down coats. It was 61F....thank God for Hot Tubs!
Grabbed the last 8 cans on the planet so "Why Yes, I'll have another".
Good looking beer!

i mean sure, if only regionals and nationals are considered. I guess.
Bells 2 Hearted is rated the Best Beer in America. That's what this article is about. Top 10 beers/breweries... guess circa 2000???

Speaking of burning thru brews. Thanks again @jerbrew. We get Mikkeler here but from EUR. This is tasty as I just discovered a rain leaking around my fireplace. Yay!
Agreed. 4 days of raw rain finsihed by a couple of inches of snow at the tail end of a hurricane. I'll stout it.
