They didn't say that a vast selection had suddenly become available
but it's true that there is *now* a great selection of craft beers. 15
or 30 years ago you'd have trouble finding very many on sale in one
place. As for non-boutique restaurants, I only remember seeing a large
selection in Seattle, 15 years ago at Ray's Acres of Clams.
