At least around me that has improved. Ten years ago it was just a dick-measuring contest about who could make the bitterest beer. Once you hit 90+ IBUs you're not even pretending to make something good.

Since then, craft breweries here have course corrected. Most of them here are focusing on making a well- balanced IPA as their flagship, then experimenting with sours, stouts and saisons.

A brewery near me is owned by a guy from India, and has been very creative with spices reminiscent of different foods from that region, that I just haven’t seen anywhere else! Maybe it’s a sour or has tamarind or a juicy IOA with different fruit notes, or a mango lassi dessert beer, etc

That sounds awesome! Does he only sell within the confines of Michigan? I'm in Chicago myself, that sounds like an amazing brewery y'all have there

Sorry if implied Michigan …. Massachusetts

No worries dude, that could've been my bad for all I know

Where is this brewery, my good sir?

Of course now they’re going to make me a liar with their current selection but I see a lager with lemongrass and an ipa with pineapple and mango.

Thank you for sharing. Their stuff does look very interesting and something I'd want to try!
