While I don't really like most of american food I've tried, I really LOVE everything sweet coming from US. Cakes, cookies, pies, whatever. That's where US shines and there's also a bunch of original stuff (Brownies for example).

Different beers should be served at different temperatures - normally a good cellar temperature for typical English pub beers (ale/bitter) would be around 12-13 degrees Celsius (that's around 54F). Any colder than this and you lose a lot of the aroma and flavour. Strong English ales are often supposed to be served at room temperature to bring out the complexities of the flavour, but that's certainly not what most people drink down the pub.Mariner said:Not "warm" actually - it should be served at room temperature. There is no way in this world that I'll let an American criticise British ale/bitter when the 3 words "good", "american" and "beer" are rarely found in the same sentence!
And as an Englishman living and working in California I would like to put in a good word for American beer. Certainly the mass produced rubbish like Bud is grim, but the beers brewed in many of the microbreweries are perfectly capable of ranking alongside high-class beers from anywhere in the world.
"Good" "American" and "Beer" can certainly be found in the same sentence all the time, thankfully.
