So my vote had to go to Holland.
I drank some beer in Amsterdam that was SOOOOO good,  don't recall the name of it.  It was a white-ish beer.  Heineken Dark is lovely... The Heineken Traureg or something like that I also tried in Amsterdam and it was amazing. 

I'm just angry because Fat Tire is starting to make its way around the US... They actually have it in Chicago and Louisville....but no Indiana, it doesnt make to much sense to me.

ohh yes... the Hoegaarden White is pretty good as well!

Kronenbourg 1664 is also good... and also the only French beer I've ever tried...
Peroni is decent
Pilsner Urquell is good stuff...
Most of the beers made by the Bells company in Kalamazoo Michigan are also VERY good.. The Oberon is very good!

Usually around 5% for light beers... it depends on what kind of beer it is man.  and IPA could be 6.5... The local brewery makes a Winter Warmer ale that is barley style.. its 12.5 percent.  All depends on the type of brew mang!

Belgium has the world's best beer.  Why that's not included I don't know.

I'm pretty fond of Heineken light actually. Just a matter of preference/taste.

Holland and Australia.

And when it comes to this, i like to think im not biased. i have spent a LOT of time in the imported and domestic beer sections. I have tried beer from all over the world. I firmly believe those two nations produce the best beer.

The best American beer, out of the 3 or 4 that ive tried, would have to go to Miller Draught

Scientific fact, there should be no opinion poll here.

If you didn't say Germany, you are simply wrong.

Just remember, they keep the good stuff in-house, the export stuff is because they don't believe the rest of the world could handle heaven in a bottle without proper training.

I have to go with Germany. But this poll fails for not including Belgium (which is a very close 2nd for me). At the same time you have Canada in there? give me a break
once upon a midnight dreary, while i pron surfed, weak and weary, over many a strange and spurious site of ' hot  xxx galore'. While i clicked my fav'rite bookmark, suddenly there came a warning, and my heart was filled with mourning, mourning for my dear amour, " 'Tis not possible!", i muttered, " give me back my free hardcore!"..... quoth the server, 404.

Murphys or new castle if the holy guinness isn't available.

To make the poll right, you'd have to include almost every country on the planet. One thing is universal in this world. Everybody has their own beer. Even the Bahamas has Kalik!

My thoughts:
I'm much more exposed to American style beers. Most of you in Europe would consider it tasteless pisswater. It's really a different product much the way you shouldn't compare an IPA with a Hefeweizen.

With that said, virtually every single taste in beer imaginable can be found in the US. I'm not sure that's true in most other countries, including Germany. Now if you want to say Germany has the best Pilsner, that's fine, or England has the best Stout, that's also cool, but if you're just saying beer in general, it's gotta be the US. Sooo much variety.

My favorite foreign beers
Dos Equis Amber
Grolsch Light is very nice.

Domestic:
Abita Purple Haze
Of course a Michelob Ultra mixed with a Spykes Chocolate is a lot of fun too.

extra dry platinums are better. They are alot smoother and get you plastered faster.
