My favorite beer though i can't even get, spent a year studying abroad in Salzburg and got used to some of the best beer in the world, but I still love some light beer, perfect for shooting the shit with your buddies at the bar, watching the game, or something refreshing while cutting the grass

Also I don't really like craft beers, it's nice to drink one here and there, but they are very impractical to get drunk off of, and you look like a faggot going to a bar and ordering some fancy gay beer

Do you not understand how percents work?

If your light lager has 4% alcohol by volume (as most do), and my IPA has 7.5% that means it has almost 90% more alcohol, so one pint of IPA is as much alcohol as 1.9 pints of light lagers.
Meanwhile, a lot of the best beer gets even higher than that in alcohol. I personally drink a lot of Imperial stouts that are in the 10-12% ABV range. Drinking one 12% stout is like drinking three light beers

No that's you being elitist, I live in New Orleans and have had my fair share of craft beer, a lot more than the average person, and i would have drank a lot more than you if you didn't have wet dreams about IPAs every night

I have found some beers that were good, and come close to the average beer over there, but I have never found a beer that could match some of those austrian beers i've had, and considering i've spent an egregious amount of time in Austria, and one of the biggest craft beer cities in America, i can assure you i know what the fuck i'm talking about

I doubt this is true, also keep in mind that a much higher percent of good Euro beer is available in America than vice verse. I don't even need to leave my city to get a pretty good idea that America has it much better. anyone anywhere that has tried a lot of different beer recognizes that America has it best. But yes I have been to Europe and drank a lot of beer when I was there, according to my Untappd I have tried 152 unique European beers from 16 different countries, and I have only been tracking that for a few years

You have to admit, light lager is at least reminiscent of piss. No one would obviously confuse the two, but light lager is basically just water with a hint of piss flavor and a lot of carbonation.

California is literally top tier. Stone have opened in Berlin and are thriving there; I'm not even a fan of theirs but it's good to see them show Germany what modern beer can be. There isn't a single weak region of California, whether we're taking SF Bay, Central Coast, San Diego, Los Angeles, Orange County, or the far north. Each one can directly complete by itself with most states, and taken as a whole there is no single geopolitical area in the world that comes close to the quality and breadth of styles. New breweries attain top flight status within a matter of years because of the knowledge sharing and collaboration that occurs between the producers. Whether we're taking West coast, haze, sours, or stouts, California is home to multiple contenders for the title of best in class. Nobody else can say that.

>But LA-OC-SD versus the same region is a better comparison geographically, and has many more people
Actually, the state of California has about the same number of people as the upper midwest. But they drink much less beer as a portion of what they drink and drink less overall (see all of those maps from earlier in this thread)

>Upper Midwest IPA
Toppling Goliath, Old Nation, Brewing Projekt, Hop Butcher
>Stout
Central Waters, Three Floyds, Surly, Founders, Goose Island (despite being bought out), Toppling Goliath
>Sour
New Glarus, Funk Factory Geuzeria, Side Project (technically lower Midwest I guess but super good), Une Annee

Plus these guys do non-hype styles much better and you are going to find a broader variety of styles available, not going to find many of those 2/3 IPA tap lists

THIS was my exact problem when visiting california. It was surprisingly difficult just to find a liquor store that didn't have walls of old IPAs. Some even a year old. This was around San Fran.

In California you drink / cop cans at the brewery or you locate one of the rare-ish craft bottle shops. Macro distributors own the common grocery-liquor store game out here, and the best you're likely to find at a large chain is whatever breweries are distributed by Stone.
Honestly your best bet for low effort craft beer finds in California is the local Whole Foods.

Only the old balls 5th years and dumb freshmen drink busch light to make themselves unique with the orange can. 95% of people drink natty or vodka mixed with hawaiian punch and 7up.

That's what I ended up doing, and it was fine. Had some very good beer, the only problems were getting to the location and cost. I travel to cali every other year, but this was my first time in a major metropolitan area so I was rather confused by the beer distribution. It's way easier to get just as good beer in my area that's slightly cheaper.

Natty is for lightweight kids and old rural people. Source: part time at a large booze store in a college town.
