To an extent that's right...most Americans wouldn't know a good beer if it beat them within an inch of their lives. That's why beer is served ice cold here...it numbs your taste buds so you don't notice that almost everywhere else in the world American beer is crap. Give a German a PBR or Miller High Life and he'd probably spit it out...preferably on your face...for giving it to him. But Guiness is different. I've had many Guinesses and it won't ever grow on me. I suppose it's good if you like your beer in syrup form. For me, it's too thick and kinda tastes like coffee. But I'm a pilsner man so I'm not a dark beer fan. I need to get back to Germany...I'd just about move there for the beer alone.
