Australian commercial breweries are s***. Aside from Coopers, micro breweries are where the quality is at.
What German beers have you tried? Are you into wheat beer? It's my face style of beer!
Is there a popular joke in australia cause ive heard it here, that theres a reason you export fosters, mainly cause it tastes of tramp piss.
I quite like Fosters but not having tasted a tramps urine I'll take your word for it Fraffy.
What you do in your own time is up to you and we're not going to judge you, you filthy little pervert! 
Castlemain XXXX is very nice indeed but you can't get it in the UK anymore. Have to make do with Bud, Carlsberg or Miller. Tennant's if I'm desperate but it tastes of neepy soup, apparently. 
You know that the greatest state rivalry in Australia is between New South Wales and Queensland (my mother state). And I'm not talking about State of Origin Rugby League Series, it's the XXXX (piss-beer as the cockroaches call it - and I secretly share their viewpoint) vs. Toohey's News rivalry.
I thought it was ironic that the NSW Blues this year were sponsored by Victoria Bitter (which, in my opinion is also piss-beer). So this State of Origin I have affectionately called the battle of the piss-beers. And sure enough - my fellow cane toads prevailed.
However, bud - you might be able to help me on this - isn't VB a
Victorian Beer? If such, why the hell is a Victorian beer sponsoring a New South Wales beer? In my opinion that is just not on - and those pathetic cockies deserved to be thrashed emphatically.
I honestly couldn't believe the news headlines when NSW won the second test. The newspapers had a giant heading:
WE DID IT. You bloody well did what? What's "IT"? Win one game? I have never seen an Australian Reperesentative team rejoice over one, lucky win on home turf. Neither have I ever seen "IT" be just one puny little win in the history of Australian Sport. "IT" usually means you've actually achieved something worthwhile mentioning to tell your grand kids about.
It just showed what dire straights the game is in in it's home state. It was absolutely pathetic, and I couldn't stand hearing about it for a whole bloody week. If they actually won the series, then I would understand a news headline "WE DID IT."
BTW - I've never tried Fosters, but looking at the plain blue can (similar to the plain green can for VB's) I have no doubt that it is weak piss beer as well.

P.S. I have never used so many expletives in one post - this is a passionate Aussie talking about beer and footy.
