and fair enough...

We are still dominated by the soulless mega-breweries with not enough microbreweries..

I am a long time beer drinker & I am happy to support the mega-breweries. There are many microbreweries with a brew designed only to have 1 or 2 by way of their very strong/individual taste-that is not what I am after in a beer but others obviously think otherwise.
Nothing worse than a beer that derives from possum p""" regardless of who makes it!

Not sure why Sydney would be in the top 10, but anyway, each to their own!

I think the list is pretty accurate!

I like this microbrewery-
Seven Sheds | Brewery Meadery Hop Garden | Railton | Tasmania | Australia - Seven Sheds Brewery

Visited today and tasted a couple of their specialty beers-Indian pale ale-to replicate the originals coming to australia by boat this beer in cask went back and forward across Bass strait on the Spirit.
Also smoking bagpipes-peated malt.If then put in ex whisky distillery casks for a while it becomes Up ya kilt.
I like their Paradise Pale and Kentish Ale.
I would drink Moo brew more often but they are a bit further away from where I am working.
I do have a Moo Brew cap which I wear OS-reads-"Moo brew.Not for bogans".

Too US centric. IMHO, to be honest if the beer that I have tasted in the US is anything to go by (especially that rubbish Budweiser), I would conclude that their beer palates are not very refined!

5 of the 10 on that list North American, 4 from the US.

Disproportionate to say the least. Boston? Wow 2 micro breweries listed. Portland? a bustling micro scene since the 80's. lawl.

Add in a token Munich/Brussels/Amsterdam and the list looks like an American top 5 plus a quick read of the Europe Lonely Planet to find out which cities are famous for beer.

Anywhere I can get Delirium Tremens is a good beer city.

So you need to be into beer from Microbreweries? Not a fan.

And it may sound nasty but I will never understand the reputation of Czech beers. Awful is the best way to describe them....

and they totally failed that as well. No Bamberg!

For some reason I thought Tokyo would be in this list.
