That's a great list, and as usual will have many answers which are right in 
some sense, wrong in some sense, and sometimes even meaningless in some sense, 
but to be able to spark a discussion with them is the trick.

I cast my eye over it, and would remark that the answer that most clever folk 
that thought they knew for:

> Where is Budweiser originally from?

is probably not accurate, and the uneducated would be more correct ... in some 
sense. ;-)

Budweiser (Anheuser-Busch ) basically has no connections, via history, recipe, 
or company with the 'Original' Budweiser Budvar. 
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Budweiser_%28Anheuser-Busch%29#The_name
The US brewers basically picked the name out of the air.

Anheuser-Busch Budweiser is not "originally from" anywhere but um, St Louis.

> Where did pilsner style beers originate?

THAT however is a much more precisely answerable question ;)
