MMM beer. I drink just about any of them. Mostly either New, VB, or Extra Dry. At the risk of being thrown out of here, I dont see what the fuss is about Crowns. Tis just beer. I think it kinda tastes like a light beer.
I bought a case of Duff Beer and drank all but 1 can only to see on ebay that a case was up to $12,000 US. And I didnt even like it much. Still have the one can.
Hey is this wierd or what. New Years Eve at work I had 3 lights in quick succession before driving home. Got pulled over and the machine read zero. Surely I should have had some reading like .01 or .02. something!

I'm a beer drinker.
Skewy, your right about those Little Creatures, that's one of my favs. My favourite would be Grand Ridge Gippsland Gold.
Amazer, I did exactly the same thing with Duff when it came out, except I drank it all.

One day the shelf supports broke nad it all came crashing down. Only 1 glass and 1 can of guiness broke. But it sprayed the entire room. Amazing how far 1 can of guiness can go really. took ages to clean up.

I have to say I'm partial to Bud... Very partial in fact, just wish they didn't hook us so much for it over here. It's half the price of XXXX in Canada.
Then there's good ol' Guiness stout. Black gold indeed I reckon.
But then, any beer's OK if it comes free...

Hey Guys
I am partial to the odd drop of the amber ale. But I draw the limit at VB or should i say Very Bad beer after all I do have taste.
Come on guys enjoy life and try some of Tasmania's award winning beers.
Cheers Damian
(This was not a dig at those of you who are Victorian's I just don't like VB)

Beer Drinkers Carry The Can Again
By Lillian Saleh
It's enough to make a grown man cry into his beer - the price of the amber fluid will rise nexr month yet again.
Cartons of beer are set to increase by $1 while Crown Larger drinkers will be slugged an extra $1.50 a carton.
Bottles of beer will rise on average by 10c.
The increase will see the price of a VB jump to more than $30 a carton.
Brewing companies yesterday said the increases were due to the consumer pirce index and beer excise and it was up to the individual bottle shop as to whether they passed on that increase.
News of the hike left a bitter taste in the mouth of beer drinkers yesterday. David Anderson and Brett Medlen walked into the Royal Oak Hotel in Parramatta for a lunch beer break. The builders said they were angered but not surprised by the price increase. "It always the smokers and drinkers who cop it. It's always the working class," Mr Anderson said.
Mr. Anderson who buys at least one carton of beer a week, said the price increase couldn't be justified.
"You get big executives getting paid millions a year and here they are slugging the little man a lousy dollar," the 49 year old said.
Mr. Medlin said drinkers had no choice but to pay. "It's one of lifes little pleasures and it used to be cheap but not now," he said.
Independantly owned liquor shops yesterday said they expected to feel consumer backlash. "We are struggling as it is and this increase dosen't help," one shop owner said. "Buyers are going to be angery when they find out the price has gone up."

56Astro: this is the best topic ever posted. Also, that is the funniest thing I have ever read!
Rustybug: that is the coolest picture i have ever seen! We can only dream I suppose -but with genetic engineering.....
Amazer: that DUff story is the saddest thing ever. And to think it didn't even taste that good.
Bananaman: I had a Fosters for the first time the other night; and I thought it was a fine drop of beer.
Helbus: I think your line needs modifying thus: "Save our precious water" drink beer! and you could also drive an aircooled vehicle....or..... beercooled....mmmm.
So, there are my thoughts on other people's posts. Now, my favourite beer is a certain vintage homebrew (or at least old). My Pop was a mad-keen brewer but unfortunately passed away before he could pass on his knowledge. The good news was that I found a few cases of king-browns that were missed.
Ten years old and still fantastic!

I'm a bit partial to Sterling myself. I'm not much of a beer drinker but I love it if I have company or going to a BBQ. There used to ba a cartoon gracing many a wall in Queensland pubs of a camel drinking XXXX and a bucket labeled VB underneath collecting the camel excess. Never have tried it - and after reading the consensus, I guess I never will.

I am ashamed that I forgot to mention the beer song. I don't know who sings it or what it is actually called, nor do I know many of the words. But, I think the chorus(?) goes something like this:
"Oh I like beer, it makes me a jolly-good fellooooow, ow I like beer.
It helps me unwind -sometimes it makes me feel mellooooow.
Whiskeys too rough, champaigne costs too much, vodka puts my mouth in gear; this little (refrain?) can help me explain: as a matter of fact I like beer."
I think that is sort of how it goes. As they sing they get drunker and drunker and it is a very funny song.
Anyone heard it or know where I am coming from??
Cheers

Hey kol we can remember you literally rolling drunk down the hill at Appollo Bay馃榾馃榾
Don't have a preference, will drink whatever is there. Hmmm, I'm not easy:jesus
Used to be Red Back with a slice of lemon when in trendy mode. Boag is good:thumb
Like the swing top on Grolsch bottle. The bottles can be recycled but what do you do with so many? The beers not bad either:beer
Heinekin was the last one I had in fridge.
p.s. son's friend is taking a bottle of Tequila over to London with him tomorrow to continue a long family (including initiated friends) tradition馃榾

I remember that beer drinking song - 'As a matter of fact, I love beer.' It was sung by Tom T. Hall in the early '70s. I have it on tape somewhere.
James Squire is a nice little 'boutique' brewery just around the corner from my office. Their wheat beer and India Pale Ales are extremely drinkable.
My local bottlo always seems to have Reschs Real on special...thank goodness. I drink a lot of that.

Just cracked another cold, switched from Vitamin B a few years ago, when I developed taste buds. As for the best beers: Guinness or Tetley's Bitter on tap, Kilkenny would have to be about the best beer they've ever managed to put in a can. The Resch's used to go down real well on a long hot day in NSW, and Cooper's was the go in SA. Oh, I'm starting to list every beer in the country again, did I say I like beer - I've even been known to knock back a few XXXXs in Far North Q'land during the silly season.
Which reminds me - can anyone tell me the correct reason they call it XXXX. Is it because banana-benders can't spell beer, or because they're not allowed to write sh#t on the can?

Nah,
I reckon the only reason that we (Even though I am in Sydney I am a QLDer!!! Home is where the heart is) have XXXX on the can is because using the same letter four times is easier than coming up with some other name, and wasting valuable drinking time thinking of a slogan or classy name!
