iv'e brewed beer at home since before it got cool mianly bc i didn't have to be 21 to buy beer brewing supplies

also yeah beer is really good and i'm not usually quite so glowingly positive about the sttae of things in the world and I am almost never one to say "the usa is the best usa #1 wooo" about anything because i think the whole world is pretty cool
BUT
i really do think the past 10-15 years or so have been a golden age of brewing and that american beer culture, which used to be one of the worst outside of pockets of small local breweries, has actually become the best in the world, I think US craft beer is more varied and more interesting than beer in germany, ireland, belgium, czechia... these places have excellent beer within their more narrow scope but the US just has so much interesting experimentation going on and I love it
