Craft Beer Brew Humor

So I run a liquor store which speciallizes in craft beer. #1 store in the state, to be more specific. I live and breath beer. If I'm not selling beers or ordering beers for the store, I'm buying beers, reading about beers, brewing beers, out with beer reps drinking beers. You get it.
Over the past few years I've been getting more and more disenfranchised with the what is being considered "craft" beer. This really hit hard with feedback from my last 3 batches.

Super crisp- clean, sessionable Lager: Too boring
Top tier West Coast IPA: Too bitter, not hazy or fruity enough
Marshamallow Dessert stout (I wasn't happy with sub-par quality) AMAZING!!!

Long story short, I want to brew more "Craft" beers. Does anybody have any recipes for a good New England Double Bourbon Barrel Aged Imperial Tropical Salted Caramel Double Dry Hopped Extra Oat Cream Vanilla Milkshake Chocolate Raspberry Icecream Sour White Stout Infused with Mint, Hibiscus and Truffle oil?

Haha you got me! Tastes and trends are always changing and evolving. Sometimes I like to try the hip weirdo stuff and other times I just want a solid pale ale.

You can't find Sierra Nevada Pale around you? Where the fuck do you live?

I misread your comment as can not can't and was about to say, where the fuck do you live that you can't find the flagship beer of one of the countries largest craft breweries.

I can find SNPA, but no other pale ales.
