the notion that european beer is superior to american beer used to be true, but with the "explosion" of microbrews in the past decade-ish, it's no longer an accurate assertion. In fact, "european beer" and "american" beer are largely worthless terms, as they both encompass super rich varieties. belgian trappist beer is vastly different from british ale, or german weissbeer, or czech pilsner - and those are just some examples. And as americans have really taken microbrews to their liking, american beer nowadays is largely "whatever european beer they feel like making".

I also have never tried making my own beer, but frankly it seems very easy to achieve great results. I have two friends who have been making beer that pretty much matches whatever beer I can buy anywhere, and they've both described their brewing as very effort-less.
