"**WHICH** American beer? "
Your mass produced 'standards'.... d'uh.... same as everywhere else... So you and Mick can unknot each other panties... Nobody is 'attacking' your precious USA....

" What IS it with these generalizations"
It is IMPOSSIBLE to speak generally without generalizations.... Try not to be a "BigMick" kind of suck by taking them personally. Cause they aren't personal at all.... It's a generalization... and that's not a bad thing at all.... as long as you understand it.

" Clinton, I wonder if you might recommend some quality beers."
Nope.... I'm 98% a Guinness drinker.... Though I have had more than a few Chimay products that have been very nice...
