Awww man. I went to most of these before leaving the continent. I miss it, and now I can't even go back. Well, it was a special moment. Thanks.

Come on, Fnarf, you can't say the super-strength is an American obsession only. Here in the Netherlands, 5.2 is standard for your regular biertje. Belgian beers tend to be stronger, 10% is not out of the question, but your standard dubbel or blonde will be about 6-8%. And those are beautiful beers.
Personally, I'll take the Belgians over the English. But they have lambics, and Flanders red ales, and those will sway me to anything.

@12 I was shocked to find that there are still brick-and-mortar Blockbuster stores in Copenhagen. My Danish friend didn't even realize that they were in trouble. So maybe the bulk of that is overseas business?

Here in the Netherlands, there are stroopwafels. They are the best.

@18: well, except that Zwarte Piet were originally Sinterklaas' slaves, then changed to "helpers", they talk in Surinamese accents, and my Dutch friends are well aware that they're pretty racist looking. They just don't think about it. The context might be different but it's far from issue-free. I can't speak for Spain, though.
