When I was at the World-Beer festival in Raleigh yesterday I got my first chance to taste beers with a very pronounced vegatable flavor (DMS). I found at least 3 breweries that have a problem with this, as I wouldn't call this a desired flavor in any style of beer (unlike diacetyl). I believe that all of them were NC based microbreweries. But I cannot believe that they would serve a beer with such an obvious defect. This showed me again, microbrew doesn't mean good beer at all. I rather have BMC than these beers and if I would get such a beer in a restaurant, I would return it.
Azalea Coast Brewing Company from Wilmington NC, was by far the worst offender. And when I mentioned to them the vegetable smell in their beers (the Fokker Ale and the Navigator Lager), they didn't even believe me.
