Because my hometown is awesome like that. There's nothing quite like walking downtown in the summer and smelling the Brewery...

Generally I would agree, but the whole point of this was 25 BEST beers, mostly microbrews. Not Bud or any crap.

True... choopie, you ever had Creemore?
Canadian beer, but so good
The best beers are definately not made in North America though

I've had a few from the Great Lakes Brewery, especially since I'm from Cleveland. I've also had some stuff from Rogue Breweries, but not what they had on the list.
I drink mostly imports though. Samuel Smith Oatmeal Stout, Newcastle Brown Ale, Strongbow, and Smithwick's lately.
Might try Stella soon, but I'm into ale and stout mostly.

I disagree.
Firstly, Creemore is nothing special.
Also, there are plenty of American strong beers and most these days have the same alcoholic content aswell (we're not all drinking Michelob light).
Also, American craft brewers are quite impressive, and they really do outshine most of the big Canadian brewers and almost all of the Canadian craftbrewers.
It's really a shame how uncreative Canadian craft brewers are these days. Perhaps this summer will be different for them.
I've tried many of the smaller Europrean brewers aswell, but they really don't live up to what they could be. But I'm young and thirsty, I'm sure there are some small Euro-brews to be had (assuming they dont keep all the good ones in Europe.. damn French).

oh yeah of course, most major beer companies suck hard no matter where you go (few exceptions)

Honestly, I'm quite fond of several major North American beer companies. Of course, my pallet isn't nearly as refined as Carl's so my opinion doesn't amount to much.

I've had some pretty creative Canadian microbrews...I dunno about you...

i think people bash on beer just to sound like they know what talking about and there a big beer drinker
seriously even big companys beer isnt that bad, I will drink a kokanee, bud, etc.... and its not like im out the window puking, its still good.
I do prefer draker beers such as rickards red, and honey lagers (:-D), but really.... there giant companys for a reason, ALOT of people love them, and its all personal opionion.

I drank a beer once, didn't like it. Rather smash back something with 40% in it or a little THC. Mix the two and you got me in a good mood!

Personally, I like Woodchuck.
As for major companies, best out of all of them, for the price, is Miller Light.

I'm not a big beer drinker, and I used to hate it. I can enjoy some of the more name-brand stuff whilst playing some BP, but besides that, I'd rather have something harder.

Chewp, there's a store near me that has an amazing beer aisle, with every kind of import and microbrew you'd ever want. I looked around briefly last time I was there for Keith's, but I didn't see any. They probably have it though. I'll look again next time I'm there...maybe this weekend.

I had some Sam Adams Summer Ale last night. Really good stuff, in my opinion.

None of the above. I do hear some people around rave about Penn Breweries beer, but I have never tried it.
