I had Fat Tire for the first time when I was in Vegas last month. I had heard so much hype over it that I was braced to be seriously underwhelmed, but, if anything, the hype was understated. That is the single best American Amber ale. I have never had another that was even close to that good, and I have had some damn fine Amber Ales. Still, I have had a grand total of a six pack of it and it can't be found this far east, so calling it a favorite would just be torturing myself. And yes, that is a beer that is better than anything I can make.

Budweiser Budvar is sold in the US under the name Czechvar. Pick up a six. At the very least, it's as good or better than Pilsner Urquell. At most, it is the thing you were looking for.
