That is an import for Europeans too. 8)
Last year at Vail skiing, I met 3 people from Germany. They were about 45 years old. Over lunch we discussed beers and skiing. I suggested they try a micro brew IPA. The next day I saw them drinking Budweiser. I asked if they tried an IPA. All three wrinkled their noses and said did not like. O well. I tried.
Newcastle. Now made in Belgium.
The real original budweiser Due to lost trademark through the wars it is called Budvar at home and Czechvar outside. You can find it in better stores in every town here.

Nothing to indicate this; reference? Perhaps you are confusing ale brewing with football playing.

When my dad was in Germany for a stint, he consumed a ton of beer, as it is part of the culture. None of the big names were the beers consumed. Most of the beers served at the eateries that he and the others frequented came from a menu featuring a wide variety of local brews and my understanding from the Brewmaster at a local place here, who travels to Munich to sample various hops frequently, is that this is the common practice there. That each "area" has its own cross-section of small breweries that have their own unique products that taste the way they do because of the water used, where the hops are grown...etc. It is essentially a culture of local micro breweries which serve their surrounding areas. Now, this may not be the case for the large urban centres of course.

True Mancs know that it's not real Boddies since they stopped brewing it in the old brewery near Moss Side. It's still a nice pint but John Smiths do it better IMHO.
Otherwise, Amstel and Erdinger are delightful on draft but barely palatable bottled or canned so only really suitable when 'out and about'.
Citra and DoomBar and Hobgoblin are my regular favourites, and when I feel like a bit of a change Trooper and Dizzy Blond and absolutely ANYTHING made by BrewDog.
Boutique beers FTW!

I expected a lot of the replies in this thread would come up, but this honestly surprises me.
I thought Newcy Brown would never gain any popularity outside of Northern England and you guys over in the land of Budweiser and JD are naming it as a favourite!
Much kudos to you

Not a huge fan of Beer, but when i go to Finland to see family and friends i usually have a Lapin Kulta
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lapin_Kulta
I'm more of a fan of Long Drinks made by Hartwall which are made with grapefruit juige and gin, we call it Lonkero in Finland.
What i usually drink is a Swedish cider called Kopparberg.

I don't know if you posted it joking but.... Wanker refers to a man who likes to "pleasure himself" too often

I was born and raised 3 miles from the original Boddingtons brewery in Manchester England. As a kid I used to watch the dray men at our local Boddingtons pub lowering the barrels into the celler on ropes. It was without doubt the best beer in Manchester but I can tell you it's a beer that's changed a lot over the last 50 years and these days it's a much blander beer with a less bitter taste.
