I voted U.S. just because my favorite is Shiner Bock. But the U.S. has the worst too (Miller Lite, Coors Light, Budweiser). After Shiner Bock I'd probably say Guinness though. Still, lotta good American microbrews that are better (IMO) than a lot of foreign beers people really like. I kinda think people just like the sound of saying, "American beer is pisswater. I only drink (fill in your favorite European country here) beer.

Oh yea, Orion from Okinawa is good too.

Your funniest post ever.

Well the US do have an extremely large amount of micro breweries. 1,600 was the last number I heard. So the answer could easily be The US. I don't think a lot of the good US beers reach Europe though. Anchor and Brooklyn beeing exceptions

Anyone who answered anything other than Belgium doesn't know Belgian beers.

Well, yes and no. As Leo99 suggests belgian breweries do go heavy on the yeast. At lot of people dislikes that. Actually I claim you have to practice to get to like belgian beers. But it's worth the effort!

Pilsner Urquell is THE most overrated beer there is.

Beg to differ. It's not as hoppy as other czexh lagers but it's certainly not as anonymous as the big SIL's (Standard International Lager) like Carlsberg, Bud, Heinecken, Carling's...............

the fact that the US is on the list and canada isnt is a disgrace.

Sorry mate. Maybe I'm too unfamilar with canadian beers. About the only ones making it to Denmark are Labott (SIL) but then about half a year we got the series from Unibroue. Know that brewery? They make fantastic belgian style beer. Can't remember all the names but Trois Pistoles is a great Brune type and Raftman is an amber ale made on whisky malt

Actually San Miguel is from the Philippines, but it's still a crappy beer.

My answer, though, is Belgium AND England. The best beer drink is half a glass of Lindeman's Framboise Lambic with Young's Double Chocolate Stout poured on top of it. Some people call it a Chocolate Truffle, some a Chocolate Covered Raspberry. I call it heaven.
