Theres a few good ales in american but they're local ones, you can't really get them over here.
American beer is generally horrible, chemically, watery, tasteless, gassy, rubbish.
Some of them you drink them and can't tell the difference between it and sparkling water.

Sierra Nevada is pretty good IMO.

You will find superior beers from pretty much any other country though.

You'll notice those weren't suggested in this thread... *edit* ok some were...not sure why as yes they are terrible.

I explained why in my post, they're there for completeness and that you can get them easily, not because they taste especially nice. However other people will doubtless like them and since jp_bl_68 didn't mention that he'd tried them it seemed worth pointing them out.

Sam Adams and Michelob would be my suggestions for beers that you can actually get relatively easily and don't taste bad - I'd still prefer a great many beers over them but they are at least decent.

You might want to try some of these too if you can get them.....

I sampled the blueberry ale and it was great on draught.

As was said - stick with the independant micro breweries and some are fantastic.

You can get Sierra Nevada from Tesco's (They normally stock the Pale Ale as well as one of the seasonal beer as well). As well as Anchor Steam.

Tesco have started stocking a brand called Flying Dog which is decent as well.

German's good, the Dutch make excellent beer too.

Are there any British lagers?

One really nice beer which you can get in the Bahamas and US, but not here, is the Bahamas island beer, Kalik. A perfect summer beer.

No the British make man beer, lager was made for ladies to drink. Now go have 10 pints of old growler.

I had a few when i was over there and thought they were very nice. Michelob, amber bock and samuel adams were the best i tasted.

jp_bl_68 · 17 Oct 2009 at 18:45

Real men drink whatever they can get their hands on.

burtie · 17 Oct 2009 at 18:46

Michelob is nice rolling rock is not to bad but they are all a little weak in taste like wee wee.

Bud light lime is all we drank in Vegas. Lager wise anyway.
