Who makes the best beer in the world?

[nvr2low]

Steinemarzen, Rottenburger, und... und...Und Beck's?
Ja und Beck's!

LOL!


The diversity of brew in the US puts it at the top of the list!

Last time I checked Minnesota was part of the mid-west. And last time I checked Surly was still brewing out of Minnesota. And last time I checked, Surly makes amazing beers. You might want to take that comment back Mikey!!!

You do a lot of checking, are you an accountant?

 

[flabyboy]

Uh, wat.

Have you ever tried Boulevard or Schlafly?

If Boulevard makes bad beer then I guess I really have a thing for bad beer.

Also Surly and Bells

Mike, due to the fact that most people will not go back and read more than 1-2 pages, it seems like the , Midwest joke is going to cause a "problem" anytime we mention it. Let's hold off until this hits page 10 then test out my theory.

 

[mikeysab]

It'll happen again before page 10. People will read it and hit "QUOTE" before finishing the thread.

I agree that Boulevard makes outstanding beers. They are right up there with some of my favorites. While on the subject of MO brews, O'Fallon makes pretty decent brews also.

I'm also sorry to say, Phenry, that the worst Denny's I have ever been to was in Rolla. Not that Denny's is gourmet but this one is especially bad!

[aubiecat]

We DRINK the most beer here in Wisconsin.

Maybe the rest of us just like drinking cheap.
Beer at a damn bar cost too much.
I buy mine at the store so I can get home and get toasted.

 

[dgrabstein]

Ok you guys are killin me with the inside joke , Midwest thing, wtf? There is no , Midwest is there?

And for the record, Colorado is the mecca.

Back to OP:
USA!
Belgium
Germany

Edit: oh ok

 

[DubBrew]

Colorado is not the Midwest at least as defined by the US census bureau.

 

[Airborneguy]

Colorado is the midwest?!?!

I lived in the Springs for 4 years and everyone I knew from Colorado always referred to the state as part of the Southwest.

 

[mikeysab]

Oh, there's a ,Midwest, and the beers that come from there are terrible, fruit-filled, and taste like gun powder. ,Midwest specializes in weizen beers, and lies.

So to stay on topic, my favorite beers come from the US. I like german beers, brits, and belgians as well, but the US turns out more beers that I like.

Cause problems? You guys get "confused" responses. I got a half-page long chew-out by Revvy (who, by the way, was part of the , Midwest thread).

I don't care, though. It's still funny.

I couldn't help but notice that there have been no more posts since the 'outing'. Interesting...

Agreed, I think its hard to argue with the sheer volume, variety and quality of beers that the US is cranking out right now

 

[SittingDuck]

You know, the US is number one, no doubt, but there is some seriously good beer made by our neighbors to the north. Even their BMC is better than ours--Molson, Labatt 50, good stuff comparatively. But then you add in some of the good craft stuff? Like Unibroue? Those are some quality beers.

Yeah, i'm going to have to add Canada to my list.

 

[smuth10]

Even though the US is kicking out some killer beers, I would still have to go with Belgium. Westvleteren 12, Rochefort 10 and St Bernardus Abt 12 are hard to beat

[SittingDuck]

Thank you. Gotta keep the boomstick handy in case any of these primitive screwheads start eyeing my beer.

Shop smart, shop S-mart.

 

[DannPM]

Belgium, hands down

 

[flabyboy]

Drinking some Fullers right now, you have to appreciate the complex flavors that come out of some the most basic malt bills. This ESB is so good.

Yeah, Revvy did open a can on you for that one!

...or weizen brewers who make guns.

PS, even seen the theatrical version? It was sick! I was covered in blood on the first row.

 

[alepale101]

How many of you who said the U.S. makes the best beer have ever been to Germany?

[SittingDuck]

The musical one? No, I never got to see it, but it sounded right up my alley.

Maybe not as far "up my alley" as Revvy got on the Michegan issue, though.

Hey, Revvy, does it help if I tell you a Plattsburgh-style Michegan hot dog is one of my most favorite things?

 

[Airborneguy]

How many of you who said the U.S. makes the best beer have ever been to Germany?

6 times.

 

[Shooter]

It is a little known fact that the best beer brewer in the world is Gunnar Olafson, 23-A8 Roald Amundsen Drive, Oslo, Norway.

The best beer DRINKER in the world is Curt "Lord Loudmouth" Shotbolt, 29 Blowito Utyou, Rass County, Leeds, West Yorkshire, England.

You just reminded me about the laugh Revvy gave me when we argued about Coney dogs. I'll never back down on that one!

Hell here comes Yuri

Evil Dead the musical. i will never be the same.

Coneys in his hood. Michegans in ours. Well, yours; my former.

 

[Airborneguy]

Your lawyer speak just confused me. I'm a blue collar loser remember.
