Out of all those beers, lets see what Fosters owns/imports...
1. Carlton
2. Cascade
3. Corona
4. Crown
5. Pure Blond
6. Victoria Bitter
Thats right, Fosters owns half of the Australian beer market... and you should see all the micro brews they own & there impressive ownage of the wine industry... Foster's Group - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
anyhow, sorry about the tread jack.... I think they need to widen the test range or determine hot pockets. I'd easily spend 300-500 a weekend when I was back in melbourne per week either in the city or stocking my bar.
The non-giant owned is the best tasting from that list, and I agree. Coopers.
Most Australian microbrewery and boutique brewing establishments are pretty sad. Most of them attempt to replicate popular international styles, and pale in comparison.
The best shit is still directly imported from Belgium and Germany; Franziskaner, Weihenstephaner, Chimay, Rochefort, Bernardus.
And a six pack of those already equate to that $31 average.
wahooo finally im on a above average list!
This list says I'm a below average pisshead.
I guess there are a fair few years of above average to level the playing field.
Yes, I do know it's the internet. No, that doesn't mean spelling and punctuation are illegal.
Agreed, I had mixed feeling about the quality of beer in the US before I got here. But there microbrewery produces high quality brews that are quite unique to each region (and they dont try copy the imports), but also at cost price compared to the imports and microbrews back at home.

Smash this average by far with my weekly bottle of scotch.

When I was last in the US the guy I was with asked for a local beer and was given one of these.

Anyone tried it?

Haven't tried it, but I trust the community at Beer Advocate - looks like one I'll have to track down.
And yeah, for the record, the USA and Canada have great boutique brewing scenes. Great innovations of Belgian styles, and pretty much the best brewers of stout and IPA in the world. Australia looks like a joke in comparison.
That's true, with a few exceptions however. Feral brewing hop hog, mountain goat crossbreed thorny goat to name a couple I've thoroughly enjoyed recently.
James squires, little creatures and fat yak is probably the best out if the macro stuff though, the rest is shit.
