Caraway Brews' Moment in the Sun

It seems that caraway is having a moment with brewers in southern Wisconsin. First it was MobCraft's Fish Fry Rye, a rye lager with the venerable seed and then a few days ago I discovered Pumpernickel Porter over at Vintage.

It had your expected dark malt flavors of coffee and bitter chocolate, a bit of stone fruit sweetness, spicy rye, a little sour like sourdough bread (or perhaps 19th century porters), and caraway. Liquid bread indeed! Will a caraway IPA be next?
