I'm German. I look down upon these pesants. The best beer is dark and unfiltered. Anything else cannot compare.
I’ve had your beer while in your country. Much respect and all given the history and contributions to beer over all, but after a week…it got boring.
I’m happy to be a peasant with never ending variety of styles and variations within styles without being hamstrung by some unimaginative and restrictive laws.
There's variety too, you just didn't get to see it during your stay. The laws are now much more liberal than they used to be.
But yeah, when you go to a basic place, many German beers have a similar character I would say. Normally there's just the difference between light, dark, red, weizen and then the mixed ones.
Drinking weizen makes me feel like I've had drink and food at the same time, so rich.
My stomach says thanks but no thanks haha
