Austria is the country with the second highest beer consume per person worldwide... just germans drink more beer... Our beer is a lot better then german beer but most of Austrian Breweries are too small to really have a broad market in other countries... but maybe if you go into a speciallity shop for beer you may find Hirter (well as far as I know Hirter is sold in 27 countries (I used to live really near that brewery) and if you live in Germany, USA, Japan or the UK you might be able to get some... other countries that I know they export to are Italy, Switzerland and Slovenia... but like I said its probably very rare in every of the named countries except maybe Italy and Slovenia... It is even hard to get here in Vienna... other Austrian Beers are: Ottakringer (thats the brewery I live next to now), Zipfer, Murauer, Gösser, Villacher, Egger and a lot more^^ I should make a thread about everyones favourite beverage... BEER! just kidding... |
i dont think its better than german beer (btw im from germany) i bet most bavarian and austrian beer sorts are like they would come from the same country. ok, the rest of germany has other beer sorts very different to most sorts from bavaria but you cant say one is better than the other. for example most germans say the bavarian beer is the best (ok there are more breweries than in the rest of germany together) but there are so many different sorts like the altbier in düsseldorf that i would never say that the best german beer comes from this or this place in germany. its just vey different from nort to south...
ahh and the best beer comes most time from small unknown breweries so yeah the beer from the big german breweries isn't as good as the beer from the small ones like in austria 
and i dont believe germany and austria are place 1 and 2 in beer consume. the guys from czech republik drink beer the whole day without a break lol...
