Has anyone else noticed that there are a bunch of great American hops and even some very nice yeasts, but it seems every respected source of brewing information says that American barley is cardboard/flat tasting compared to European malts.
We've got more farmland than just about anywhere in the world. I think there would be a huge craft and homebrew market for super-premium domestic grain. Sure, it's yield is usually lower, but there have to be some altruistic beer-loving farmers out there who can take up the challenge!
