        It seems that many nations most famous well known beers are considered swill fit fit only for drunken teenagers and alcoholics at home, yet often strangely popular with wankers when exported - ie Fosters, Budweiser. Rubbishing any countries mass market beer to local drinkers generally just gets a "huh, you think we drink that crap?" reaction.

        FWIW I like Australian mass market beer much more than American, but try to avoid drinking either.

        And I have drunk fine beer in Seattle, San Jose, and New York.
