Struggled to find beer that I like in usa- I've not been there much though.
It's increasingly hard here though (UK).
Shitty lager, or hipster-grapefruit-jizz or guiness is the normal choice in most pubs, and even in many so called "real ale" pubs, those of them still left. A decent pint of bitter is hen's teeth these days. I guess fashions change and there's no money in old style beers that I prefer. You can't argue with the bottom line.
I find shitty lager in US is not as nice as shitty european lager - it just seems to have an odd taste - but it's not what i want to drink.. I guess german/czech lager is about as good as it gets, for lager/pils - but still not very flavourful.
Belgium is good, but not really for a session beer. It's for a different type of drinking.
I hear that. I enjoy IPAs that aren't too fruity or floral, but sometimes I just want a pint of bitter like my grandfather used to illegally buy me in his local when I was a teenager ("Yes, he's nineteen, just scrawny. Sad really, he needs feeding up.")
Yeah moving to the UK from Germany it was a big shock how bad the 'standard' beers were.
In Germany you could just order 'a beer' and get something good, in the UK it would be like birra moretti or something
I liked the ales though...
