I think the problem here is twofold...
First of all, there are different types of beers.
Warsteiner is a pilsner, a type that is clear in color, and usually bitter. Most American beers are weaker types of Pilsners - which is admittedly a way that you could make a comparison to Budweiser here. However, Warsteiner is a GOOD pilsner.
Second of all, there is a difference in beer sold here and beer sold in Germany. The stuff they import to America is NOT as good sometimes. American beer laws are nowhere near as strict as Germany's so they save the best stuff for themselves. We're used to drinking watered-down crap anyway, so no one's the wiser. Trust me, if you tasted Warsteiner from a tap in Germany, you might have a different opinion.
