Aside from this new European brand of jingoism, I'd appreciate it if
you left quality American craft beers out of your sweeping
generalizations.  American Lager might be the prevalent commercial
beer in the states, but it's not what people looking for a good beer
drink.

If this persists, I'll suggest rendering Ireland with a Guiness logo
and Holland with the Heineken logo. :p

Cheers,

Adam
