I don’t know what US beers you have tried, but I’m assuming it was the mass produced piss-like swill that Budweiser or Coors tries to pass off as beer. There are actually many excellent brews in the states, with most made by smaller craft breweries.

Good point. Or I was thinking to test what people rate little creatures when they know what it is. To see what the difference is.

Yeah, that’s part of it. I pretty much used friends who are students and don’t have a developed taste for beers.
A professional taster could easily taste the same beers but I guess this represents an average drinker.
The benifit is that you’ll not easily be fooled by this type of stuff
