Oh come on, I'm tired of hearing about US beer from people that don't drink real US beer. Yeah, the domestic big seller beers like Budweiser are pretty crap, but there is an incredible craft beer scene. Look at brewers like Stillwater and Dark Horse, or even bigger ones like Sierra Nevada. Even European brewers like Evil Twin now have US based breweries.
Other countries have excellent small-scale beer producers too. But some of them also have quite good mass-produced beers too, which is my entire point.
Like someone else, you're trying to compare American small-scale products against mass-produced international goods, as if other countries don't also have very good small-scale producers.
