    Have you considered homebrewing? In a couple of days I will be brewing my annual English Bitter Ale which features Crisp floor malted Maris Otter Pale Malt, West Yorkshire Ale Yeast, and East Kent Goldings hops.

    Cheers!

    I do. Low ABV English style ales have probably been about 75% of what I've brewed over the past 2-3 years...
    But I have two kids under 3 and I don't get home very early so I have not been able to make nearly as much beer since my 11 month old was born.

    That doesn't mean that I still don't want to go be able to buy examples at the store.

    Brown Ales and more true to the style Pilsners.

    Yes, black IPAs. Wooky Jack, Nighttime, Mountain Standard, really liked them.

    Another vote for Black IPA's (Wookey Jack and however you class Founders Black Rye).
    Non-band-aidy Scotch Ales.
    More Porters in general, but a beautiful peaty one like 'Bert Grant's Perfect Porter' would just be, well, perfect.
    Oatmeal & Rye Stouts

    Would love more gruits but were they ever "in" to begin with?

    I'd like to see more Kentucky commons and grisettes now and again.

    I recently had that on tap at a place we went for my bachelor party and all I can say is I'm glad I didn't have to worry about driving home

    Heavy Seas eisbock was ok and I still have a few bottles I'm sitting on. I wouldn't mind trying Kuhnhenn's stuff but I prefer a traditional, non-adjunt or barrel aged version. Also, according to style guidelines, an eisbock should not have wheat like Aventinus, and Kulmbacher is one of the only available commercial examples. I brewed one recently and it still needs more time in the bottle, but so far it's really good

    The last rye stout I had was quite a many years ago, Old Forge brewing. It was pretty tasty but not amazing. I stopped buying their beer 6-7 years ago as they did not date their hoppy beer. Would love to try more of the Rye Stouts

    Enjoy

    Just wanted to toss my 2 cents in here: when I lived in AZ 2012-2016, Marble was my jam. Great pilsner, their IPA is excellent (especially so before Elevated/Dragoon came along), hoppy amber was great. I can't think of a bad beer I've had by them, really. It's kinda sad that La Cumbre overshadowed them, Marble will always have a place in my heart (la cumbre deserves the praise notwithstanding)
