I'm tired of beers over 5% alcohol

When I go to a brewpub/micro brewer it astounds me that I cannot find a good beer under 6% alc. Why is that? Why do currently do the brewers think that to produce a good tasting beer that it has to be over a certain gravity? Is this to cover flaws, or its because the consumer demands it?
My personal opinion is these craft brewers think they have to differentiate themselves from others and from the mass produced stuff. Hmmm but why; our society should be built about locally produced items, and why can't these be similar to what others have. I'm tired of extreme, I would like a good old all-malt lager that I could enjoy with my food and share with my friends.
