History of the American Beer Brewing Industry

[PenkemperK9]

I've tried beer from 40+ countries, including irish and canadian beer, Both are weak when compared to American beer, American beer is by far the best beer in the world, Don't drink irish or canadian beer, They taste bad.

[MrCOLTSR2]

@PenkemperK9 Most American beers are rubbish FOR fs!.....there are great beers from all over the world so stop being a stupid stuck up yanky panky BS god bless American Knob head faggot!..you yanks owe ALL your history and heritage to the EUROPEANS!..without us u would be NOTHING!

[seamoremonster]

@MrCOLTSR2 Well, I don't think I can agree with all you say...but certainly about beer...New Zealand makes some damn fine beers...Sweden, Holland, Germany and Denmark make damn fine beers and Sweden puts out a first rate cider with lime and elderflower...(I pour it over ice and add a shot of gin)....Ireland makes wonderful stout...and England does some nice dark ales and porters. Yeah...for the most part the guy is full of shit.

I was out to dinner Long Horn Steak house and a table of foreigners all ordered Miller Light. I thought to myself OMG, they are going to think all American beer tastes that way! :-(

[MrBillSattler]

@groovyhippyman your a christ fucker, you have no clue

[MrSanderloones]

@groovyhippyman Compared to belgian beer all foreign beer suck.

[the4thj]

Thank you! Preach on brother!

[sumadinac92]

One thing for Yanks.Your beer is fuckin weak for Eurpoean standards.I have recently visited Czech republic and it's nearly immposible to find beer with less than 10% of alchohol.Plzen(12%),Pilsener(1­2%),Urquel(10%) and Krushovice(12%) were the beers I drank and as you can see none of them had less than 10% of alchohol.Same thing happened in Austria,while here in Serbia most beers are weaker(about 5%-7%) they are still stronger than stupid American with 3 %.

[bluejays1945]

well your right if your talking about bud or miller, which suck and are not even really america. But there have been more breweries shooting for higher gravity beers. i say the average now is now around 5. but i agree with you. i hate that shitty weak beer.

[MrBillSattler]

@sumadinac92 you sir are full of shit your percentages are way off.

[sumadinac92]

@MrBillSattler Nope,go to Czech republic and see it for yourself.Effect says it all.Just try out and compare!I don't drink beer any more though.Rakija RULES

[ozzyslasher1970]

home brewing is fun and i get a sence of pride that i made some thing that people love and want more of.

[thedirtys2006]

right there w/ u on that man. tastes much better then cheap shit. the stuff u can make would cost u like $4-6 for a 22 oz, or about $24 a case i would pay. but i make it w/ some buds so so many varieties. chocolate stout, amber ale, belgian white ale, scottish ale are the one's i am in the middle of now.

[dvdfrnzwbr]

Home Brew kicks Commercial and Microbreweries asses.

[riothero313]

It is nice to have the satisfaction of knowing you did it but it can go horribly wrong also lol

[thedirtys2006]

yeah almost thought we had a bad batch. it tasted moldy. my friend dumped it. n we saved like 4 in bottles 12 oz. turns out it just needed to be ages for an extra 2 weeks to get that flavor mellow out. we thought it was something bad. we hav the homebrew for dummies n other books. but in the back of homeb 4 dum'z its got a faq of things that could happen or tastes

[polaroid2000]

Whats similar between American beer and having sex on the beach?

Both f***ing close to water

[jminsc76]

Which American beer? If you are talking about our Macro lagers like Coors or Budweiser, then you are correct. But what about American Strong Ales like Arrogant Bastard, Rogue Dead Guy, or Port Brewing's Old Viscosity? West Coast IPAs such as Pliny the Elder, Racer X, and Stone? Russian Imperial Stouts such as Deshutes' Abyss and Alesmith's Speedway Stout? Smoked Porters by Alaskan Brewing Company and Stone Brewery. California Wild Ales? I could go on. Have you had any of those?

[handsandfaces]

lol yank beer is shit PERIOD, only yanks sing and dance about how great it is, and no matter how many reasons you give or how much you cry your eyes and stamp your feet YOUR BEER IS STILL SHIT jajajajajaja

[circusboy90210]

you have not had any micro brews then... I agree most mainline labels are inferior.

[riothero313]

You obviously haven't had a properly brewed American micro brew or you don't have a discerning enough palette to appreciate it anyway.

[dvdfrnzwbr]

I've tried everything on a store shelf and on tap at local brew houses. Nothing comes close to my home brew. Micro Brew is just a term to disguise commercial beer.

[handsandfaces]

once upon a time a american took a piss in a bottle and mixed it with lemonade. American Beer was born!

[Jboxton]

We make the best beer in the world overall. We haven't perfected some styles, though (gueuze lambics or any lambics for that matter), saison and hefeweizens are better left to their own countries. Oh wait....you have no idea what those are do you? You are a beer moron and know nothing about the diversity of beer so shut your stupid mouth.

[shwilly]

Did I see some La Trappe just there?

Anyways: the best beer countries in the world are Ireland (Beamish pwns), Germany (best lager beer) and Belgium (sure, Japan has lotsa strange varieties too, but most of them taste pretty horrible).

As for America, the most famous brands SUCK bigtime and the last time I went there I couldn't try any of the good stuff because I'm not 21 yet. I'm still pretty curious tho...

[Jboxton]

Hahahahah! Very wrong. I have acquainances in all of those countries you mentioned (except Japan...fuck them anyway) and I trade beer with them all the time. They are DYING to get our CRAFT beer....the shit you drank is hated by Americans who know good beer. We just have more resources here and that's why our beer is much better. Belgium comes close, though. They are the only country that can do a good gueuze lambic.

[Jboxton]

Great video.

[LordThreepwood]

American beer = expensive water xD

[Jboxton]

HAHAHAHA!! American beer is the BEST beer out there hands down. Have you tried Port Brewing/Lost Abbey? Stone? 3 Floyds? Alesmith? We brew the best and most diverse beers out there.

[gotchaix]

sorry dude , stick too facts.

A tiny country called belgium beats you with it's bear, they have OFFICIALLY the most sortys of beer. and really lots of people just LOVE it. and eh about your american beers? i think they taste like horse-piss and your just being the stereotypical american patriot.

[Jboxton]

First of all, learn how to spell and construct simple sentences. Second, shut the fuck up. I am talking CRAFT BEER. Something you obviously don't know. There is a whole world of beer out there other than simple pale lagers that you know. America's beers are more diverse than any country out there and any TRUE beer person knows that. Belgium DOES have great beers...I know...but not as diverse. *Smack*

[gotchaix]

at least i speak your language and you understand me , try talking to me in MY language if you think you're so smart. and still ... you are wrong belgium has the most beers , that includes the most craft beers but the arrogant american never heard of "la chouffe or Boerinneke" Budweiser is a good example of a craft beer brewery , and who owns it?

INBEV , the biggest beer company in the world , and it's belgian.

[Jboxton]

You are again showing your ignorance. Budweiser is a good example of a craft beer brewery??!! How the fuck do you figure? Here in the US we have a style of beer we call BMC- stands for Budweiser/Miller/Coors and means shit beer that is produced by for the masses with no flavor you fucking idiot. I've had many La Chouffe beers and they are great. Never had Boerinneke so I can't comment. Look up beers from Lost Abbey, Russian River, Alesmith etc. THOSE are true craft beers.

[gotchaix]

Strange , i'm starting to doubt about you. the first thing i found when i typed "craft beer" on youtube was about budweiser , so it must have something to do with it.

and a whole diversity? the oldest of the beers you just named is from 1996 while our Duvel is from 1871 !! and our beers still have more diversity i notive that you can only name Russian river, alesmith and lost abbey. while we have Duvel , lambic , la chouffe , maredsous, Boerinneke , Palm , Kwak , corsendonck , mort subite etc.

[Jboxton]

Again....you dumb fucking foreigner. Budweiser IS NOT CRAFT BEER!!! Holy shit are you fucking dumb! I'm not going to list EVERY beer I know, but here's a hint to what you said. Duvel makes a Belgian ale. Lambic is a style, not a brewer your fucking idiot. La Chouffe is a beer made by Brasserie dAchouffe, Maredsous makes Belgian style beers. They are all the SAME STYLE (or similar). I love most of those beers, but they are ALL ALIKE. That is quality, not diversity you fucking numbskull.

[gotchaix]

and something else Jboxton,

I watched your channel and i saw in the messages how much people like you , seems like you are the kind of person who just doesn't grow up.

i'll think of that in my replies to your comments , that it is a person who acts like a 8-year old who i am dealing with.

You must feel great acting like a bitch on everyone's videos... The stereotype American. overpatriotic and asocial.

[riothero313]

ROFL How is Budweiser a craft beer?

WTF

[zio5q]

yeah... They uses rice ffs..

[thedirtys2006]

yeah your ingredients give it it's color, aroma, and at the stages of boiling your flavors. thats why its so clear.

[thedirtys2006]

MUDDDWEISER! gives me the mudd after a night of "having" a good time.

[ERWI65]

We do. Sam Adams, Shock Top, Blue Moon, Dogfish Head, Yuengling, Anchor, LongTrail,Red Hook and Brooklyn to just name a few.

It's just that the world is ignorant and clings to the notion that Aemrican beer consists of Budweiser.

It's like saying all European beer sucks because Heineken and Carlsberg are crappy beers (they are the Budweisers to Europe).

[chaserct]

If anyone thinks American beer just consists of Bud or Coors, then of course they'll think it sucks. There are plenty of great American beers out there though - Sam Adams, Shock Top, Blue Moon, Dogfish Head, Yuengling, Anchor, LongTrail and Brooklyn to just name a few.

[Jboxton]

Holy shit, shut up man. Sam Adams is basic (though a lot better than most other countries), Shock Top is Annheuser Busc and Blue Moon is Coors. The rest (with the exception of LongTrail)are good but basic.

[chaserct]

Dogfish Head is good but basic? The same with Yuengling and Brooklyn?? I'm sorry, but you're completely wrong there. And yes, I know that Shock Top and Blue Moon are from AB and Coors, but you missed the point - those companies actually make some decent beers outside of the main ones everyone knows about.

I will agree though, Sam Adams is better than most other countries. I'm studying in the UK right now and haven't been impressed with the local brews so far.

[Jboxton]

I feel for you man. The UK produces absolute shit beer. Fuck those boring ass bitters and European lagers/ales. They suck. I do envy you being over there. You can get a lot of stuff we can't get here, but it is of lower quality. Oh and I was tired when I wrote that. Dogfish Head is a great brewer...Brooklyn is good but cliche. Yeungling is a one trick pony.

[naughtydogbrewing]

@chaserct Blue moon is directly from off the coors line shock top is directly off the michelob line they are just marketed as craft beer ....watch beer wars

[toddlintown1]

Hans Fritz?

Put down the beer and hit the beer history books.

[marotblat]

Why all the hate for the American brew. You need to take a trip to Chico. Besides, we have the coolest can: /watch?v=TSQD8Lk3ies

[16BPM]

American Beer sucks, Drink Irish, German and Canadian Beer, those are beers to talk about, espesially when you drink too much

[11hani11]

true american beer sucks

[GreendragonDMX1]

all great brews but u forget australian beer mate..now im not talking about ...fosters... im talkin Victorian Bitter and Tooheys(old,new, xtra dry) XXXX bitter and XXXX gold, melbourne bitter all great brews and for me (not just because im aussie) but id place all those above german and canadian beer, but those irish are damn crazy with theres lol

[Jboxton]

That is LAUGHABLE! Austrailian beer is AWFUL. I've had most of the Tooheys (which are crap other than the Best Extra Stout which is OK), I've had Barons Black Wattle (awful) and haven't had the bitters which is a bitch ass style. Irish beers aren't great either. American beers are HANDS down better than the crap you listed. Fuck you and your boomerangs. If it weren't for koala bears I'd be all for nuking your country.

[spleegulence]

True that Man, i am fron Canada, tried american beer, big mistake, like you said go Irish german or Canadian if you want a real beer

[Jboxton]

You a fucking idiot. I've tried 1600+ beers from 46 countries and American beers are BY FAR superior. You just try bland basic macro brews like Bud/Miller/Coors. Other than Unibroue Canada produces absolute CRAP! Same with Ireland and Germany does OK but it's all the same. You know NOTHING about beer.

[spleegulence]

your a meany lol,
