Is German beer the best in the world or are there other beers that have better taste?!
Answers:
Well, look how crazy beer fans could be! Jokes apart, it would not come as a surprise if I tell you that beer is, supposedly, the third most popular drink (after water and tea of course, and surprisingly beating coffee!!) and is being consumed since time immemorial. The invention of beer dates back to somewhere in the stone age and only guesses can be made regarding its actual invention. An interesting story which describes a short history of beer goes like this.
Most Expensive Beer in the World
Vielle Bon Secours: This rare brand of beer is available only in one bar, Bierdrome, in London. It claims to be the world's most expensive beer with a price tag of ￡500 (equivalent to around $1,000) per bottle or about ￡39 (equivalent to around $78) per pint. Phew!! That's quite an amount, however,
Samuel Adams Utopias: This beer flows from the largest American owned brewery and is among the most expensive brands of beer. It also holds a Guinness World record for being the strongest beer with an ABV (Alcohol By Volume) of 27%. Samuel Adams Utopias stands out in the crowd for its rich vanilla, caramel and oak blends and the beautifully crafted copper-plated kettle in which it is sold. Only 800 bottles of this rich beer have been produced and is sold at about $100 per bottle.
Tutankhamun Ale: This limited beer is named after the famous King Tut, as the recipe of this extraordinary beer was discovered in Queen Nefertiti’s Temple of the Sun in Egypt which housed a brewery, build by King Akenhaten (husband of the Queen and probable father of King Tut). The rare ingredients add to the richness and definitely the expense of this brand. Sold at $52 per bottle, Tutankhamun Ale is worth a shot.
Best Selling Beers Around the World
America: Surprise surprise!! America's most popular beer is NOT Budweiser, like most of us believe. It is rather its cousin Bud Light. After years of being in the top position, Bud Light has not only overtaken Budweiser in the US, but is also the world's most selling beer with the total market share of almost 16%.
United Kingdom: The Brits always had a special place in their hearts for beers. Though they have always preferred ales over lagers, it is a kind of an irony that currently the most popular beer brand is Carling (and is a lager), which was previously known as Carling Black Label. Though it is not a very famous beer in the other parts of the world, the Brits do not care. They just love it.
Mexico: One of the most famous and popular brands across the world, Corona is Mexico's favorite too. This pale lager does not need any introduction, as many of us must already be a fan of its smooth texture and the tanginess, added by the lime wedge. It is also America's most popular imported beer.
Brazil: Instead of an international brand, Brazil prefers the humble Skol, which is a local brand that captures almost one third of the total market. It is produced by the largest beer brewing company in the world, InBev. Though it is commonly believed that Brazilians do not like much of beer, this highly populous country loves its beer alright.
Germany: Germany has always been in love with beer. The companionship is quite old with nearly 1300 breweries to cultivate the romance. The country where beer flows like water, Krombacher appears to be the most popular. It would be expected that all international brands are widely available in this country. However, the Reinheitsgebot purity law has kept all the imported brands off limits.
Australia: Australia means Foster's; that is the general notion. In Australia, however, Foster's is hardly available and on the contrary a beer owned by the same company, Victoria Bitter, is the most popular. It is actually not a real bitter but a normal lager. Lovingly addressed as VB, it is mostly consumed in the state of Victoria, in Melbourne.
Best Beer in the World List
RateBeer Best is the world's largest beer competition that reviews all the possible beers. According to the results of the competition held in 2010, Westvleteren 12 stands first in the race of best beer in the world category. It is a Belgian Trappist Ale, brewed at the Trappist Westvleteren Brewery. It is owned and operated by the Monks of the St. Sixus Abbey. This is a rare beer which is very hard to find due to the limited production, which also makes it quite expensive. It has been time and again rated as the best tasting beer in the world.
Other beer brands that have been able to not only survive the competition, but also come out victorious are:
1. Narke Kaggen Stormaktsporter
2. Cigar City Bourbon Barrel Aged Hunahpu's Imperial Stout
3. Three Floyds Oak Aged Dark Lord Russian Imperial Stout
4. Three Floyds Vanilla Bean Barrel Aged Dark Lord Russian Imperial Stout
5. AleSmith Speedway Stout
6. Three Floyds Dark Lord Russian Imperial Stout
7. Founders Kentucky Breakfast Stout (KBS)
8. Russian River Pliny the Elder
9. Rochefort Trappistes 10
English real ale / bitter s the best in the world. Beer from other countries is usually lager and is a pleasant enough drink but it doesn't compare with what is brewed in England.
There's nothing such as best beer in world. Everyone has different tasted.
Though there would be 2 very good beers that are considered the ultimate beers
Corona from Mexico
Cisk from Malta

"Better" and "Taste" are subjective. What I like may not be what another person likes.
i like Old Milwaukee, u probably have never seen it but it tastes a little like budweiser but just a little bit fruitier
depends on your taste
alot of german beers are heavy and get you full quick but they taste damm good
I think they all taste the same, I prefer iced coffee.
Best Wishes.
