Who makes the best beer?

sonicl · 09.25.2006, 10:37 AM

Seeing as there's a thread elsewhere has gone wild over beer, it seems a good topic for a poll...

As an ale drinker I vote for Great Britain. For non-ales I'm not sure whether I'd go for Belgium or Germany.

shit. i voted "other" because i was just thinking about lager (czech lager), but i should have voted british for ale.

I voted other becuz personally, as a homebrewer, I think I do. I'll take my own Belgian dubbel over anything on the shelves, and my 2-Hearted Ale (an IPA) clone is sooo sweet and heavy.

Toilet & Bowels · 09.25.2006, 10:57 AM

french cheese, although i am partial to a bit of red leicester, wensleydale or cornish goat's cheese

Well, I took other only becasue I like Baltika more than anything else. The Dutch know what they're doing too though...

_slavo_ · 09.25.2006, 11:19 AM

The Czech make the best beer, although being Slovakian, I envy them big time.

Therefore, I voted "other"

Gret Britain makes the best 'real ale' types of beer, but if we're talking lager then it's either the Russians or the Czechs.

nicfit · 09.25.2006, 11:39 AM

lager pilsner urquell (czech)
other : dunno.

gmku · 09.25.2006, 11:40 AM

Of the countries known for beer making, I have to give the nod to Belgium.

nicfit · 09.25.2006, 11:41 AM

edit: ale GB.

Amsterdam aka the Netherlands.. aka Heineken.

i went on a tour of the Heineken Brewery in Amsterdam, t'was like Homer Simpson going to the Duff Factory. fuckin brilliant

Don't forget Poland, it's a secret gem...lagers like Ziwiec, Tyskie or Lech are just way superb!

Hip Priest · 09.25.2006, 12:20 PM

Good nomination for Poland. Poland are very good at drinks generally, I think; the best cordials (esp. raspberry), smoothies, mineral water, vodka, lager et al).

(and they have the most gorgeous looking women in the world)

Hip Priest · 09.25.2006, 12:24 PM

The ones I've met (ie about a dozen people) all seem to be terribly nice people aswell. Absolutely lovely.

Toilet & Bowels · 09.25.2006, 12:24 PM

i used to live with a half polish girl, she was quite ugly and very annoying, but her mum who was fully polish was quite attractive and more charismatic
