    What beer styles do you wish were more common, or that you could find more of?

    I would like to see more Scottish ales, more Vienna Lagers, Munich Dunkel Lagers, Bocks, and more Gueuze and Lambic style beers from breweries and in stores. What about you?

    I'd happily go with everything mentioned so far, but with the caveat that if they're not well made it's the same as not being available as far as I'm concerned.

    Brut IPA done right. I used to hate the style, probably because a lot of initial offerings were rushed to market back when brewers thought it might be the next big craze after NEIPA. B-43 from Old Nation is my only option right now. Fresh cans at a reasonable price can be hard to come by in my area.

    English milds and bitters
    English strong ales, i.e non barrel aged barleywines that mimic something like a J.W Lees or Thomas Hardy, old ales, etc
    Eisbock and weizen-eisbock (sp?)
    Rauchbier
    Munich Dunkel
    Schwarzbier
    Scottish 60,70, etc
    Vienna Lager
    Unblended lambic- I managed to get a growler of Lindeman's unblended lambic last night and it was decadent
    A properly made Berliner weiss and gose without all the fruit and lactose.

    I better stop before my list gets longer, I could go on and on which would eventually turn into a rant about American breweries ruining classic styles.
