    There's no reason to drink the ****ty commercial beers in the U.S. anymore, we're in a golden age of craft beer. Coors. Try something local brewed:

    It says no longer brewed, but it's out every summer and it's the tits. Their east coast / New England IPAs are best outside of Brooklyn's Singlecut and Finback.

    That said, I do prefer the dutch and belgian beers. Fat Tire is smooth as hell.

    I've not had great experiences with craft beer in America although that experience has been limited to the 2 or 3 bars I frequent during my 2 trips to NY each year on business. The problem I think is that increasing the amount of hop or malt flavor in beer doesn't really work in lager because of the carbonation. Too often I find the craft lagers in NY to be overwhelming, almost like drinking a floral perfume of some kind. I do tend to stick to the traditional American lagers like Miller or Coors as they're excellent. As bitter is a flat drink it can handle the increased amount of hop/malt but that doesn't in any way mean it is 'better', just different. I feel sorry for people who can't appreciate both.

    Don't listen to the dated beer snobs in England when it comes to lager. Bitter is a nice pint when it's good bitter, I've almost had to spit out a mouthful of bad bitter it was so awful. Can't say I've ever had to do that with lager. There's a reason that every country in the world other than England drinks lager almost exclusively.

    Oh, and the number one lager by sales in the UK? That would be Budweiser.

    Yes, and Carling, Fosters and Carlsberg are up there too.
    Given that a lot of establishments (like The Arsenal Stadium, for example) only serve up the weak piss of Carlsberg et al, that somewhat skews the sales picture.

    Lager, well actually beer, of choice in the UK is Stella Artois, no?

    You did have to check didn't you, IUFG? Typical HR.

    You get a variety of views according to my google search and clearly it will vary over time, however Bud is right up there and was according to one of the results the leader. Would surprise me if it was Stella, though. That was more of a 90s thing, in my experience.

    Thing is, I don't know anyone who would order a Budweiser in a pub.

    The GLW of a friend offered me a beer at their home recently - Budweiser. I had a cup of tea.

    I do He is a football writer on a national newspaper, too. Arsenal fan so not all evil. I once walked out of press junket thingy with free beer because the beer was Bud. I actually think Fosters is nicer and that is basically piss

    Really? There was a time in the City back in the late 90s or early 00s when a chap with a bottle of Bud in his hand was a very common site.

    I fail to understand how anyone can claim that it's a bad lager. Fosters I get. Carling I get. Both taste pretty awful but Bud is really rather innocuous, it's just a standard, inoffensive lager.

    Mind you, it is a large American corporation.

    I've looked at this thread many times and still don't know what it's about.
