PHX has to be the pastry sour distribution capital of the US.
I'm a bit fatigued on the style so maybe I'm noticing them more, but there are just so many and from out of market breweries that are known for other styles.
I'll see a drop from like Great Notion in Portland, get excited but see its like 4 different pastry sours. Weldwerks in CO will send us like 1 IPA and 6 different pastry sours.
Makes me wonder if there's that big of a market here for them or if they're sending stuff they can't move in their local markets.
If you're into the style though, PHX is where its at.
