Of that I'm sure, just like in any part of the world, but I'm talking about the choice you get in grocery shops and shopping malls - it's saddening, really. Due to that, many people have no idea that beer doesn't need to taste like bitter pee.

Of course, even in Europe you don't get the best beers in generic shops, but you at least get a decent choice of Leffe, Hoegarden, Le Chouffe, Chimay, Paulaner, Sam Smith, Westvleteren... Of course, if you really want to try the out-of-the-world beer, you seek for small family-owned breweries in Belgium.

But on average, USofA is not nearly as exposed to good beer as Europe, which is sad... Maybe that 'How beer saved the world' documentary might help in rising awareness
