Wich country has the best beers ?

[Jeep!]

[pedant]
Actually, English beer is cold too. You're getting mixed up with ale (ale =/= beer), which is tepid.

[Facetious]

To you, which country makes the best beers ?

In all fairness, I haven't had the opportunity to sample all of the worlds' beers but I do like The Belgium Brews as well as the UK Ales: Samuel Smith Nut Brown Ale, Bellhaven Scottish Ale, Cheshire English Pub Bier, and London Pride.

Holland Brand Bier was excellent, as was Swiss Lowenbrau Regular (not dark beer) and finally SPATEN Munich Light.

Canada has great beer, molson Canadian, Alexander keiths are great beers

O'Keefe Ale, "Old Yukon", Moosehead, Labbats Ale & Beer, Molson Ale & Beer


Canada makes the most quenching beers that you can drink all day and night and you never get a gross taste in your mouth like most other beers. :thumbsup:

Beerwise I agree with Flanders and Swann

"The English, the English, the English are best
say hooray for the English and boo to the rest"

Thereafter:
- Belgium
- Dutch
- Czech

Just like everything else, you have good and bad no matter where you go. A lot of American specialty and seasonal beers are quite damn good. Overall quality from what I have tried I'd say Germany. I do like some Irish and Canadian beers as well.

Belgian beers come very close and are better for getting paralytic.But
a German beer always goes down nicely

 

[BigSwede]

Sweden and Denmark.
The US has never made a good beer except Samuel Adams.
But my vote may not count since I stopped drinking alcohol thirteen years ago.

Since Bert Grant got the microbrew revolution undeway 20 odd years ago there are literally hundreds of great american beers. Sometimes it is difficult to get one on tap though.

Every country has it owns beer traditions, there will be always differences in taste, servings,preparing ...

Beer, is something you need to appreciate, it took awhile before it was bended in the form you will drink it. It will take you to other places, from the moment you see it being poured in your glass, from the first time you kinda smell it and wanna savor its aroma, that without a doubt will feel heavenly as it touches your tongue, dividing it in all kinds of categories (bitter,sour,carots,caramel, ...).
It ain't whine, it's better ...
It kills your thirst, opens a brand new feeling.
I've been around the world, drink a lot of beers and i actually have favorite beers that are not from over here. Not much however.

just a few, to open perspective why we have the best ...

I have heard good things about Rolling Rock.

The bad thing with not drinking is that a local brewery has reopened and started producing an old classic which I have never tasted.

 

[sproing99]

Rolling Rock was good when it was produced in Genesee

Now owned by Anheuser Busch it's from New Jersey and tastes of soap.

Is Yuengling still OK ? It was back in '03

And Bert Grant was a Scots-Canadian!
Many countries brew excellent beers-the US micros , UK real ales , Germany, Belgium.
Many of the beers mentioned in this thread are pretty poor examples-the vast majority of the world drinks pale false Pilsners or lagers , often chilled to death to disguise their lack of subsatnce and heavily advertised.They are made from poor quality ingredients , often cut with rice or corn to make them even cheaper (though to read their sales blurb it's to give that "special" taste !!!!)
IMO the finest beers are well kept and well served UK cask ales.They are more flavoursome for their strength than any other beers on the planet;they are served cool and not cold (actually more refreshing as it makes the beer more accessible) and has a freshness nowhere near approached by anything else.

I think it has to be Germany, but really like Red Stripe, so I'll put Jamaica in there too.

It's hard to pick just one country.

Trappists beer = best in the world

 

[ljswilling]

My favorite beers are from Denmark (Carlsberg, Tuborg) but I also like some Asian beers such as Tiger (Singapore) and Kingfisher (India).
