Oh, you MUST be joking! PBR?! BLEAH!!! You'd fit right in around here, though. lol. Oddly enough, in Brazil they all go crazy for Budweiser! Generic and another bleah. Most in the street seem to think it "exotic" though.
At my local pub in Detroit, they have 101 beers from around the world with about 20 on tap. GREAT place and, oddly enough, it is the local brews that earn the awards. Come here and the pints are on me! [Show/Hide Quoted Message](Quoting Message by Necroticist from Monday, October 25, 2010 4:01:21 PM)

You do, really. Am a monster fan myself. You just have to know where to look. While no 500+ year-old pedigree European brews, there are some simply outstanding microbrews across the USA that, IMO, can certainly hold their own against any I have tasted around the globe.
I am partial to a good warm stout or porter, truth be told. Guinness only on draft or in a pinch. Better than a pilsner but my fav is still from Australia. Sheaf Stout. (Quoting Message by Necroticist from Monday, October 25, 2010 1:44:56 PM)
