Has Canada reached "peak beer"?

Aaron Saltzman thinks so...

tl;dr - There are many, many craft breweries popping up across Canada, but the overall consumption of beer remains steady.

I was wondering if craft brewing wasn't becoming a bit of a bubble too. It doesn't help that most of them are oiffering the same sort of ++++hops IPA and can't do any actual variety beyond a fancy picture and what any other brewery would call an off-flavour. Most of them very between mediocre, to legitimately awful.

It is nice to have the local breweries popping up around the country to meet needs. Most of them then only serve smaller areas and it makes for both variety, and a healthier industry.
