I've always been surprised at the worlds infatuation towards Budweiser and JD. To me both are rot gut, but good marketing goes a long way. Americans love Fosters but most Aussies I know call it canned piss.
I know Guinness here isn't "real", but its better than nothing. I've been to places where draught doesn't exist, and you were lucky to find extra stout in the bottle. When you guys in the U.S. are buying imports, check the back label, cause a lot of it shit that is "brewed in strict accordance" to the original maker. Meaning you are paying premium for Sapporo made by Anheuser-Bush.
As for proper whiskey, I am thankful everyday for the Irish.
