I think Rock Bottom was the first place I actually tried a microbrew rather than a run of the mill brewski, which got me interested in trying new things. That may be why higher end beers are enjoying more of a growth than the middle of the road ales.

It's definitely easier to get microbrews than it used to be. As evidenced by the fact that people at my class reunion were drinking them.
