Such as? I'm not at all a beer gourmet and don't particularly dislike American beer (not even the light variants) but I've been to multiple states and never got a beer I considered top notch.
For example I've been to Florida just recently and apparently IPA is the shit nowadays. Didn't like a single one of them, they all tasted artificial.
Edit: Also, I hope your bar for European beer isn't stuff like Heineken or Beck's. They are not bad but pretty basic stuff sold worldwide. Nobody in Europe considers those particularly great.
Sounds like you are probably going to generic restaurants and ordering mass produced IPAs and getting our version of becks. I can happily suggest a fantastic beer if you want to give me your style of choice.
As a belgian, America having some of the best beer sounds like cope to me when belgium, germany, czechia exist
As both and American and a lover of Belgian ales, I'd be inclined to agree that we almost certainly don't have better beer than you (or I) would prefer. We do have some excellent beer, but the focus is on other styles.
German beer hasn't been relevant in the competition scene in 10 years. The French and Dutch carry the Belgium scene. Id put our best up against the Belgium best any day and have mixed results depending on category.
Never had anything from czechia though, no clue.
