In standard American fashion, we are bad at subtlety. You want hops, we will make beer that tastes like you're chewing on raw hops. You want alcohol, the beer will taste like whiskey. While there are some exceptions (like Dogfish Head 90 minute IPA), this is the standard formula for American craft beers.

The Belgians on the other hand can really 'craft' beer.

Yeah they can. I think the last 3-4 six packs I've purchased were Belgian imports. They tend to have distinct flowery notes that I really enjoy.
