If the best beer you can find was PBR you’re incompetent. Calling me an ass because you went directly to bitten of the barrel swill. Jesus Christ lololol.
Let me break it down: I never said any of what you just ASSumed, twice now. You didn’t make an ass of me twice, however. And are quite intent on proving my point of American exceptionalism. You haven’t even the wherewithal to look it up, nor feel embarrassment for it, which is why other cultures generally find us not only ignorant, but obnoxious as well.
Yeah, don’t worry. I know that the population of the so-called US have been a target of extremely effective jingoist propaganda. It’s not reallyyour fault and a decent junk of the people there are decent people, I’m sure.
I’ve had awesome stouts that were so stout they could double as a meal, and I’ve had island beers that were nice for a long hot afternoon of fishing or cooling down after out side work.
Tbf, im not a beer snob though and choose primarily based on activity and temperature of day.
I usually like Newcastle Summer, I’m not a fan of Stella. Blue Moon is acceptable. But since neither that nor Newcastle is sold as singles near me (and a 12 oz or pint not even once a week, at most twice a month is the most I’ll drink at one time), that usually means Heineken. I’ve 2 pint cans in the fridge now (I prefer bottles), but that is because I’m the last month, a neighbor has brought me three, in return for small favors. And the first was lovely, to wash* down a nice potato poon. It balances the sweetness nicely.
ETA: tbh I hate stouts, but I’m really not a beer drinker. When I drank liquors occasionally, I usually preferred a pricier tequila or single malt Scotch, and being on limited funds, that curbs that, nicely.
The only time I’ve ever had Irish whisky was in Bailey’s, but if anyone can recommend a good Irish, I’ll keep it in mind.
America has beer at the grocery store like Bud light, Coors light, and PBR, which all kind of taste the same to me. but most cities have local micro breweries for fresher beer, and more distinctive regional flavors.
You’re really missing out! In my opinion, PBR is the best of the “cheap and shitty” tier of mass-produced beer that rednecks and poor college students drink to get smashed. It’s not good, exactly, but somehow nostalgic to me for drinking around a campfire. The U.S. has plenty of mass-produced beer that’s still mediocre, but better than PBR, and some that’s even pretty decent. It’s in the craft breweries that you’ll find the really great American beer, though.
I’ve been to craft breweries and several tastings at various ones. I just didn’t find much that agree with my palate, but as I said, I’m not a beer person, in general. My friend back home used to make a rather nice home brew. I believe he may have used molasses to some extent, but it’s been a very long time ago, and most of my alcohol consumption was from home brewed corn or fruit and heavily distilled. Except my grandmother’s fruit concoctions, consisting of preserves, jams, jellies and way too sweet wines. They still beat Boone’s Farm, MD and Triple Peach, though.
When I was a kid, Old Milwaukee came 8 ponies to a pack for less than $3. It was extremely popular, especially the shotgunnable cans. Thank heaven a friend’s dad had a still, is all in saying.
I’ve never had a decent American beer. PBR is the closest to decent I’ve ever had.
I appreciate you admitting you’ve never stepped foot in an American beer store.
And I appreciate your admitting you ASSume way too much. Murica, heck yeah!

Whoosh!

👌👍 you are just making shit up you read on the Internet and justifying with insane circular logic. Deranged shit 🤣
Nah, they’re being spot on, tbh.
Sigh. Unfortunately. For all the ones who do deserve djt/Biden, I beg your pardon and please remember some of us watch with abject horror.

Depends what you are looking for.

Newcastle Summer?
Beer that tastes like rain, wet sausage rolls and tracksuit armpits, I’m guessing
American beer! No thanks.

C’mon, any Bud variety is bested by the others.

Haha, okay, so as not-a-beer-person, I guess you’re not really missing out. Fair enough.
No, but American beer is still nasty.
