I've had some gooduns, and not only the rather excellent cask Dogfish Head 120 minute IPA that I had the GBBF a few years back. They are normally a bit fizzy, but as long as it's nice and hoppy I can forgive that. More decent US beer is making its way over to our fair shores these days, although it generally seems to end up quite pricey in Utobeer and the like.
I was sceptical about US beer until my former flatmate (who is american) brought me some Dogfish Head beer back after a trip home. It's got to be up there with the best that England has to offer.
I quite like Sierra Nevada, and you can get that in Tescos these days.
ISTR it's quite reasonably priced in waitrose these days. In fact, waitrose is a fantastic place to buy beer generally as they've got a huge selection and there's always something cheap (and often the boxes of 4).
The real question, though, is how easy is it to find a pub that serves a decent well kept pint in the US? It's getting harder and harder here.
