The UK has real ale; Irish have their stouts and ales; Germans have their equivalents; Belgians also. Even the Yanks have some microbreweries, though they have to pasteurise it. But where else in the world can I find locally brewed "proper beer"?
(Those that don't know what I mean, Fosters, Heinekin, Budweiser, San Miguel, Coors, Tennants Super, et al don't count)

nbolmer, real ale uses TOP fermentation, you pillock. I've already acknowledged that the US does have a few microbreweries serving proper beer but the rest is highly carbonated and chilled to minimise the aftertaste.
Canadian beers? Examples please.

Ah, Mir, somebody else who hasn't tasted real beer. Different recipes, different fermentation processes, different names. There is only one real beer - and I don't consider it lager.
Anyway, can we stick to answering the sodding question instead of arguing over semantics?

geoff has a point. the processes are completely different. Not all german beer is lager as any seasoned traveler will know.

Before making assertions like this, please have some clue about what you are speaking.
First, a lager is ANY beer which is fermented with bottom fermenting yeast. This includes nearly all German beer, which you mention in your question.
Second, yes, North American standard beer (this includes you Canada) produces a lot of watery beer heavy in rice adjunct which is thin and flavorless. You're completely missing the fact that the USA has some of the absolute best craft beer on the planet including offerings by Sierra Nevada, Stone, Butte Creek, Anchor, and easily fifty others in California alone.

the position do I initiate!!!? i will destroy it down with information from class because no unmarried beer is my fave Wheat Ale - St. Ambroise Apricot Wheat Ale, Schneider Weisse Hefewisse - it is because those have a unique flavor it really is not too bubbly and no undesirable aftertaste Lager / Pilsener - Bavaria, lifeless Frog Lager - no bitter beer face, sparkling end for a beer, pairs nicely with nutrition. Porter - St. Peter's previous type - all i'm able to assert is this has a classic flavor, it is somewhat flavorful Ale - Double Diamond (uk), - basically the most fresh cleanest ale i have ever sampled. it is like nectar of the gods. Stout - massive Ridge espresso Stout, Guinness, Okanagan Black - all of those are wealthy in flavor, texture, and are hearty. each and everybody has a fullness that rounds out the palette and are signature for Irish pub toasts. different - Scotch Ale> McEwan's, McGregor Whisky Malt, Swan's Scotch Ale - in case you want a hearty blend of complete bodied and complete flavored ale what has the abundance of a stout, it truly is for you! Seasonal - Granville Island wintry climate Ale, project Springs Smasking Pumpkin Ale, Jolly Abbot Abbey Ale, - all of those seasonal vacation ales are ample with wealthy flavours and colors from a blend of nutmeg, cloves, cinnamon and pumpkin. better alcohol content and they warmth the cockles of your liver. Bard's tale - Dragon's Gold (Gluten loose) - between the cleanest beers I really have each and every had. is going down so tender.

What a dumb edit. Did you read nbolmers post? You said that 1) lager is not real beer (what a stupid assertion) and that German's have their equivalents (German beer is all lager). He's right, ale is top fermenting, lager is bottom fermenting. They are BOTH real beer and you're a moron.
