I'm an Alex Keith's IPA guy myself. Thats my 'Go-To.'

Dont tell me its not a real IPA, I am well aware of that and have made my peace with it as most 'Real IPAs' are a disgusting mess.

That being said, IMO the best beer in the world is Belgian. Not the run-of-mill stuff, but the specialty stuff. So good! Its also harder to find and more expensive, but if you want a good beer? Go Belgian.

And I say that as someone of German heritage.

I like German beer, but more in a...'its smooth, crisp, refreshing and you can drink it all day' kind of way.

Real, good Belgian beer is art though, nearly every country has it's 'tourist' beer.

Holland - Heineken
Belgium - Stella
Australia - Fosters

The list could go on and on, but when I was in Belgium...it'll take something special for me to consider other beers better than those.
