Big corporate American beer sucks. But fortunately we in the United States have many, many great microbreweries that make beer to rival the best in the world.

Examples of great American brewers: Three Floyds, Rogue, Sierra Nevada (try the Celebration ale around Christmas time), Anderson Valley, Capital Brewing, Brooklyn Brewing, to name just a few of my faves.

gmku 09.25.2006 10:36 AM

Yes. Good stuff--as is everything by Rogue.

Boulevard's also a good brewer, but not as innovative as some of the others I mentioned. But they're a solid brewer, true enough.

i think i read i read once that it was the Czechs who drank the most beer per capita...
in Germany, it seems to me that it really depends from the region: in Bavaria, they certainly drink a lot of beer but here in Berlin I feel it is somehow less the case (but still), i was one night in Cologne and when i ordered a pint of beer in some regular pub, they brought me some small ridiculous little glass (even smaller than the "demi" in France) while i was expecting a half-liter glass like in Munich... and apparently they did not have bigger glasses...

yeah in berlin you dont get the same thing in other smaller cities i have been too in germany. there you get men just standing around all day drinking. have you been to the kino bar near harkescher hof? they at least ask if you want a small or big glass.

Ya know how Americans always impersinate Brits by saying "He's a bloody wanka! Drink a spot uh tea!" ect.
I was cursious how Brits impersinated us. So, I asked Danny Himself. and he said
"Do you want a beer dude?" I think it's pretty accurate

"How YOU doin'?"

"Turn on the tee bee. Let's watch da Bears (Cubs, whatever)."

Rob Instigator 09.25.2006 03:44 PM

"do you want a beer dude?" is pretty damn accurate. if I drank that is what I would say. as it stands now, all I say is "do you wanna smoke dude?"

no its on the street and under a lot of scaffolding at the moment so its hard to see but its quite nice. they have a few seats outside as well. quite nice. the bar inside is realy great in winter with all the old film posters and candles and stuff. its the sort of atmosphere that gets you drunk if you know what i mean?
