Are IPAs somehow cheaper to make or something? Like the whole microbrewery scene has devolved into "We make nine IPAs, whatever the fuck a cucumber lager is, and a stout."

Hops cover up shitty beer very easily. That’s a big part in it.

Even with a dozen microbreweries within a walk of my house, it’s over half IPAs. I love them, but my wife is sad about the lack of stouts. There’s a couple of good breweries with solid stouts, so it’s not too bad.
