Yeah, I tried to be clever with the title and fouled that one off...
Anyway, I was inspired by https://www.homebrewtalk.com/f14/craft-beer-bars-issue-i-have-them-211363/ and my recent leaning toward more reasonable gravitied brews. For the last several years, I was caught up in the bigger is better hype of the craft beer craze and until last month, had yet to brew anything less than 6%, with the majority clocking in well above that. Now don't get me wrong, I love a good, kick-you-in-the-ass beer, but I felt that I'm ready to work on balancing my beers out more.
So who else out there has come to this realization and has dialed it back a notch or two? What are your thoughts?
