Well, I'll put it this way: at the local craft brew bars in town, they have a pretty wide range of styles with 4-5 in each category. And then there's IPAs, which have triple that.

My theory is craft breweries realized that they could take a mediocre ale, dry hop the crap out of it, and then charge a premium for the result. ;)
