American beer..... blergh.

 :rofl

I don't know if you guys have some decent microbreweries over there but everything I've tasted from the USA is a weak-tasting beer immitation.

Having said that, Mexico is FAR worse at than you guys are. Corona is vile. Yet Australians will pay upwards of $60!!! for a case of that Mexican piss-water.

If that's not being duped by a trend then I don't know what is.

I must apologise, I am a beer snob.

I would actually be interested to know if America produces any beer that has a full-bodied flavour. Perhaps a nice wheat beer or a Pilsener? Bud, Miller etc are foul. Australian light beer has more flavour. So does our low-carbohydrate beer.

Fill me in, guys, I'd appreciate any info on premium American beer.

We don need no steeking microbrewery. :)
Brew our own for good beer.

Carta Blanca is a very good beer. Very good.

Agree with you about Corona. I`d just as soon drink from a cow track at a feedlot than drink that crap.
Corona here seems to be the Hip/In drink of choice for the Yups here. Of course Yups will do and buy anything if enough advertisement is put behind it.

Bud, Miller etc are foul.

Absolutely. I place them in the same bracket with Corona.

My Wife works for Budweiser. They do very well here in the US, very well indeed. In the US corona is also a Bud import.

Anheuser-Busch.
Anheuser has some pretty good beers.
Budwhizzer isn`t one of them.
Some of the Michelob line isn`t too shabby on occasion.

We've come along ways in the last 20 years. Microbrewery's are popping up all over.  I cannot even drink an American lager (like Bud, Miller) anymore. Weak, and tasteless.  If you ever visit the Seattle area, I'll bring you to a few pubs that  brew their own. They are on par, if not above, brews I've had from Europe.

American beer, for the most part, sucks.

That's why I make my own(see above pics) this one happens to be a wheat.

Actually the malt extract kit was purchased from coopers.  Ever hear of them?  :rofl

My favorite beer of all-time is Steinlager from NZ.   Next would be Victoria Bitter.    Lately, I've been drinking Zywiec (from Poland).   If I'm somewhere and offered a free beer, I'll drink it.   I'll NEVER turn down free beer.

Rip the basic bud, miller... etc are not Lagers!  They are American style Pilsners.


As you get to learn more about the differewnt types of beers each has its good quality!

can you guess what it is?

That its BEER!


Whats the best kind of beer?



Free beer!
