Beer

1st Person to write a 100 Word (exactly) Essay on why beer is so great, and it must be well written, and sound inteligent gets a plus rep...

Beer makes me **** my pants smell happy.
 
I'm just suprised to hear someone admit that they drink butt cum...I thought that only existed in porn.

Anyhoo...on to the real subject, beer.

I live literally in eye shot from Budweiser the self styled "King of Beers." I walk my dogs through their campus every morning. It is everywhere here in the city of Saint Louis. Bud, Bud Light, Bud Select, Michalob, Michalob Light, Michalob Ultra....
What's your opinion on the Ultimate in American beer? Personally, if I'm going to drink an American Beer, I'm going to drink Sam Adams.
But let's move on to my next question...What's this?

Any good?
Always been told that Foster's is the Budweiser of Aus...true? If so, what's the Sam Adams of Aus?
[/b]

It tastes like **** mid-strength beer is for pussys,if you want XXXX i suggest you try the bitter.

Bottled
Carlton Draught
Tooheys new
James Boags Premium Lager

On tap
James Squire Amber Ale
Carlton Draught
Tooheys New
Carlton Dark Ale
Kilkenny (evil evil stuff drank 10 pints (imperial) of it and fell asleep at a most embarrasing time but did get a pint glass out of it)


Just to name a few.

HA! Fosters is sold hardly anywhere is Australia because no-one drinks it. It's marketed and sold in foreign countries as Australia's beer but its absolute bullshit really, cos it aint!

So yeah, anyway, foster's isnt the budweiser of Australia, because quite simply, its **** and its sold in like 1% off liquor stores.

They always go on about their Boags(?)...Tasmanian beers seem to be the ones they plump for. As mentioned Little Creatures IPA is lovely but it's only a micro-brewery.

I have to say Aussie beer reminded me of that bit in the Simpsons where they do the Duff breweary tour and all the different varieties of Duff are coming out of the one pipe.

Carling is the British Fosters I suppose.
 
NO-ONE IN AUSTRALIA DRINKS FOSTERS!!! ITS SOLD NOWHERE!!! PLEASE DONT MAKE COMPARISONS OF YOUR BEERS TO OURS THAT YOU SAY IS FOSTERS!!!

:) :D
 
Oooops honourable mention goes to the Coopers beers in South Australia. All the big boys are pretty generic : The Tooheys beers, VB, MB, The Carltons, The various XXXXs, Hahn etc etc

Brooklyn Lager is really nice yankee beer....haven't seen the Sam Adams over here yet.

James Boags Premium Lager is the nectar of the gods.

At least you have dropped the idea that fosters is an Australian Beer. :D
 
I've only ever had 375ml of the wonderful James Boags Premium, and I must agree...the nectar of the gods.

The cheapest, best option is goon (cheap casked white wine). Can get a 4L cast for $8 and when you mix it with the right cordial, its the shizzle!....Thats only when poor though lol.

Anyway back to the topic which is beer, if you haven't tried J.Boags, then you should. In Australia, a case of the Premium is around $58, and a case of the Premium light is about $35.

Had a Toohey's New last night for the first time. They've started carrying it at the Australian Embassy...excuse me, I mean Outback Steakhouse. It was great...I listened to Men at Work sing Land Down Under and watched Crocodile Dundee...It's like being in Australia but only making a 10 minute car ride.

Tip for when you're in an Arab country with strict alcohol laws: head for the Aussie embassy. Its the one with the fat sheep farmer wallowing in a tire ring in the swimming pool out back.

There we go, you're slowly coming to you're senses....Tooheys is one of Australias most popular beers, if no THE most popular brand. :cheers:

BUT! YOU MUST GET THE IDEA OF FOSTERS BEING HUGE IN AUSTRALIA OUT OF YOUR MIND! THE BEER FOSTERS IS SOLD IN 1% OF ESTABLISHMENTS AND IS DOWNED BY ABOUT 0.0000001% OF AUSTRALIANS! :angry:

Odd that it should sell so well outside of Aus.
"Foster's Lager is the largest selling Australian beer brand in the world with more than 100 million cases of Foster's consumed worldwide every year" (http://www.fosters.com.au/enjoy/beer/fosters_the_brand.htm)
I know it's not the huge thing in your neck of the woods...and have known for sometime...I just like to have a laugh.

Yeah, i know. Although Fosters is only trying to make a buck, they're adding to the stereotype of Australia which at times is downright stupid.
