>>830109I've had plenty of good American made Saisons, belgian ales, belgian wheat ales, hefeweizens, weiss beers, goses, barley wines, wee heavys, scotch ales, imperial stouts, and yes, the US even has an officially recognized trappist ale from St. Joseph's Abbey. Sure, US breweries make a shit ton of pale ales, especially imperial pale ales, but that doesn't make them shit just because you can't appreciate them.
Beer is beer because of hops anyways, otherwise it's malt liquor.
