Jeff, I agree with you 100% that the trend in the US is towards local in the beer industry and otherwise.  It's a good thing IMO and hope the trend continues.  You can see evidence in this in even the larger regional breweries suffering because they can't compete in all the local markets in the region they used to have a major footprint in and thus they have to scale back (Smuttynose in New Hampshire is a prime example).  People simply enjoy visiting their local brewery because as you said it's not just the beer it's also the experience.  Someone I was talking to a couple of years ago wondered when saturation in the beer industry would be reached.  My reply was when every decent sized town in the US has it's own brewery or two.  And lo and behold this is exactly what is happening.
