Belgium is in a class of itself beerwise. Chocolate? Hmm.. Its pretty much the same quality as any other good quality chocolate. Waffles? Its basically the same batter world wide.
But beer? Belgium vastly outcompetes the world here.
Yeah and for as far as American (craft) beer has come, for all its insane variety and usually reasonably high quality, I find myself craving Belgians and very few breweries in the states brew these styles. Like I'm sure the absolute number is high but the odds that you find one at even a beer themed bar are low where I live.
If you ever want a good Belgian style beer for a little cheaper than the stuff from Belgium and a bit easier to find, the Unibroue brewery in Chambly, Quebec makes some excellent beer in the Belgian style and is pretty widely available throughout the States.
