Wow! Tied (at this moment). Well, regardless of who makes the best brew (even though we do) I think we can all agree that the important thing is to enjoy great beer.
I'm betting I drink 90% domestic, 10% imported beer. I will occassionally have soemthing like a Chimay or Tripel Karmeliet, but maybe 4x a year. Of all imports, I do frequent Pilsner Urquell the most, mainly because it is so damn delicious and is the father of hundreds of other beers.
Right now I am getting worn out on IPAs, won't drink a DIPA anymore, and find that many American beers are too hop forward. I will swing back again I assume, as that is what I seem to do. With all that said, I still say American beers are the best. The variety is astounding and since I am so promiscuous with what i drink, I appreciate that.
Last, why drink an import if you can get a quality domestic...freshness in beer is important to me, and there are very few imports that are shipped with qualilty in mind (like Pilsner Urquell).

This is one of the reasons I love homebrewing. Nothing comes close to the freshness of a homebrew, even if it's from a kit.

Now you really can start your day off right . Another great American brew.
Europe has the U.S. beat in beer tradition and culture, but when it comes to actual product, the U.S. craft scene is much broader and deeper than what any other country or region is doing right now.

My favorite beer is Watney's Red Barrel from England, but it's expensive and hard to find. In general most of the beer I drink is from the USA, so I voted yes. I like Fat Tire, Blue Moon, and other small brewery craft beers. We also have the worst beers in the world, such as Coors and Miller.

Good point. We still have the crap for those that want it. We have the best and worst! It's a clean sweep.
