Coming from Belgium, it's an entirely different experience here.

We've theorised that in the US, they're just businesses that buy an installation with recipes included and have very little knowledge of how brewing actually works.

Do you mean for the mass produced shit lagers? There is a lot of science that goes into making those as bland as possible.

For craft brews, quite a few brew masters absolutely love beer and brewing and study a myriad of brewing techniques from around the world.
