What is the Best Beer in the World Poll

[Marcel]

Those who think German beer is top notch probably never tasted Belgian ale...

Believe me. It`s like waking up and realizing it was not until now that you really realized what beer can be you, and what you can be for beer...

So, anything from a nice Belgian abbey, especially if it combines words like 'Tripel', 'Trappist', 'Carmelite', or just being brutally frank about it and tell you you`re into some serious Delirium Tremens..

You're making a judgement on one beer!? True, 1664 isn't very good, and Kronenbourg is only slightly better, but every country has it's piss-beer. Granted, the list of French beers isn't nearly as extensive as the ones on French wines and liquors, but they have a few that shouldn't be ignored. Perhaps your knowledge of French beers needs to expand a little, beyond what a waiter in Paris tells you. (take it from me, Parisians are like New Yorker and Londoners - they have no idea there's a world outside the city limits.)

Allow me to recommend some excellent ales, such as the Jenlain I mentioned, and even Pelforth, a dark amber, though a bit bitter. Another very tasty one is Trois Monts.

Here's a nice little selection. Apart front the Jenlain Blonde and the Dragon Celtic, everything else here is quite good:

French Beer (Ale)

I have tried several French Beers in my many many trips to France (I used to live only 1 hour from the French Border) and I have never found a French Beer that came close to Czech, German or Belgian Beer.

You are correct however that all countries have there piss poor beer as well.

you b*stards talking about beer..... gggghhhhhhnnnnggh.



I prefer German, Paulaner is rather good, but there are some good beers all around the world, you just have to know where they are and be willing to sample.

But Domestic American beers as a general rule are like carbonated horse pee. Blergh. Even a large majority of the microbrews are pretty nasty now over here.

I'm not fond of Beck's though, as German beers go, and prefer the darker beers to the lighter ones. (at least as the cold weather approaches, warm weather calls for a nice, light, ice-cold wheat beer.)

If you had said you like Becks I would have been worried. It is the German answer to Budweiser.

That's what I call it! It is pretty darn nasty.

My husband drinks Heinekin, (again, yeck.) but he's one of those sissy "pee-colored" beer drinkers. I always razz him about drinking a real, amber-colored, malty, frothy decent beer.

Of course, now he just torments me because beer isn't allowed -and the non-alcoholic beers are nothing but a tease.

Thank GOD I'll be non-pregnant for Bavariafest in August and Oktoberfest in September. Kid's going to get his first taste of the good stuff through me. XD

Shmaltz Bewing Company... Never har thier Beer, but I like thier marketing plan. He'Brew Beer is pretty inventive if you ask me.

Lemme know if it is. I do like trying domestics. And Saranac has never really failed me in taste for US beers; though the hubby hates it because it's not imported. Saranac Black Forest is a really nice, nearly black, malty beer.

Not true...

A Budweiser is better left closed.

LOL

No kidding . . . . a friend of mine used to live in Germany, and he said they used Budweiser for cleaning things, not drinking. Basically, Budweiser is one (very small) step up from water.

For me the best beer in the world is Portuguese beer!!!

What beer exactly is that?

I've said before - I'll take an ice cold Belgian wheat ale over anything. I voted Sam Adams because they have good brews across the whole spectrum of beer from light lager to heavy dark ale...

 

[Luis Miguel Almeida]

What beer exactly is that?

the best are Sagres and Super Bock!!!

Sagres beer - Portugal

Evaton, Inc.

Unicer - Super Bock - "The authentic taste from Portugal"
In June 1977, and after the merger of the 3 main Portuguese beer producers, UNICER (Uniao Cervejeira E.P) was born. The company remained with government capital until June 1990, when all of its capital was privatized. Focused, above all, on the beer market, UNICER has also an important position in the production and distribution of soft drinks and waters. Super Bock beer was first introduced in the Portuguese market in the early 30's. It is the leading beer in the Portuguese market (42% market share/Sept. 1998) and is the only beer to have won 15 consecutive gold medals in the "Monde Selection de la Qualite". Produced with selected and high quality materials, Super Bock is a lager beer inserted into the Bock beer category (very strong beers).
