beer tastes like crap... a nice wine or rum on the other hand... i'm all ears
edit: plenty of people drink alcoholic beverages for the taste - why do you think there are so many styles of beers, wines, etc? why do you think people have beerfests, wine tasting events, and the like? (one coming up near my, by the way, but i can't go since i have other plans)
interestingly enough, the united states used to have some of the most respected beers in the world... till prohibition came, that is (history channel ftw).
so, I see that you know nothing of beer.
(and I've had wine, whiskey and rum that you can only dream of, so I'm not your average American beer drinker) I've known quite a few in the business of distributing the most premium libations on this planet...and to dismiss Beer, let alone American beer (many of which are supreme among all others), is to be sadly misinformed.
Before Prohibition, Budweiser made a decent Lager, that's about it. What they produce now certainly pales to their original brew, but that original brew is a peon compared to many of the excellent beers made in this country today. Not to mention the world-renowned wines produced in Napa and Sonoma.
