I have two beer a day. One with my lunch.
There is quite a controversy about American beer versus Canadian Beer.
I like both. But Canadian beer seems to have a more distinctive taste. As far as alcohol content is concerned you can buy beer in a grocery store in the u.s. which is 3.2 %.
Canadian beer is always about 5% except for 'lite' beer.
We have a malting plant in town that exports malting barley all over the world. The taste comes from the brewmaster who decides the ingredients in the batch.
I visited the plant. What they do is get barley to sprout on huge screens. Then they stop the process and export the malting barley all over the world. So if you are drinking a beer in the U.S. or the U.K. the chances are the malting barley comes from Canada. The hops are European and the brewmasters search for the best hops they can find. That's what gives the beer that 'hoppy' taste which is unique in different brands.
Lots of imported beer to try as well. The European beers seem to favor a more 'hoppy' taste. Lots of people like that hops taste. I'm not a fan of it and I gave it a try. I like just a plain lager or an ale.
Plenty of mini breweries to try as well. Beer has been taken to a new level.
