Actually the only US beer I think tasts good, is not even US originally, but a rip-off from Czech, namely Budweiser. But I guess you did not learn that in school?

Budweiser was 'invented' in the Czech town Budejovice (from which the name Budweiser is derived), and after some years a brewery in St.Louise started to brew it on license. But after a while they did not want to pay royalty anymore, and since US lawyers were more clever than the Czech lawyers, they ended up owning the brand name.
