You've probably only had mass produced crappy beer from the US. As for a source as to who else thinks US beer is at the forefront of craft beer - Michael Jackson said so and if you know beer you will know that is
Michael jackson 'The Beer Hunter' (from England, now deceased) and not the pop star. Go out and try a beer from one of the following and then get back to me:
Dogfish Head
Stone
Lagunitas
The Breuery
GreenFlash
Full Sail
Deschutes
Hair of the Dog
Oskar Blues
AVBC
Boulder Beer
Ommegang
Avery
Bear Republic
Allagash
Brooklyn
or one of the many, many more craft breweries in the US!
