Guys have built a killer business from the ground up. All the way out in the far reaches of Long Beach, CA people speak of this mythological beer as if it were the arc of the covenant. I imagine if God himself were to craft a sour beer, The Rare Barrel would be the source of his inspiration. Owned and operated by two scholars who are as dashing in looks as they are in spirit. American spirit! Love what Jay and Alex have done. Great jerb guys.
