Good American beer was an oxymoron, until this:
SIERRA NEVADA PALE ALE
A cold May day in London. Warm house, warm company, Indian food. A strange, new, chilled bottle of beer to be fetched from the outhouse beyond the backyard. But what a treat when popped open! And then a six-month wait before I could try another, Stateside.
BLUE MOON BELGIAN WHITE
This time, another year, a warmer day in June in upstate New York. Made warmer with the company of old friends. Outdoor seating. Surfing through a menu and fingering one on the list. Another lovely surprise! So much so that I had a couple more than I ordinarily would!
Americans, I am so pleasantly surprised. After years of quaffing Mexican and other imported beers on every holiday to your country, I actually love both these. And I look forward to visiting again simply to have a taste again!
On that note, Happy Thanksgiving to those who are celebrating today, although remember to give thanks every single day!

It is hard to beat a nice cold beer with Indian food. Or a good lobster, or steak off the grill, no offense intended to my Hindu friends. I like a good stout, and Heineken on other occasions.

The only beer I enjoy is cider beer, but the Belgian white sounds interesting. Yes, American beer is often quite dull, but we have many lock breweries that put out some good beer.
Happy Thnksgiving! 😊

Never heard of these Beers. Are they available in India?

No, but if you remember, I’d carried back a couple of bottles of the Sierra Nevada one – slightly citrusy taste?
Granted, your German ones are better!

I always question beers when the brewery suggests drinking it with a citrusy fruit, like lime with a Corona or orange slice with Blue Moon. To each, his own…

What’s considered the “go-to’s” of beer in London that is similar to Blue Moon? I’m from the US and I’m very curious.

Hey, I really don’t know much about English beer. When there, I play safe with known Euro brands 😉
