Of the poll selection - Cascade Premium.

Outside that, Redback or pretty much anything from Belgium, especially Hoegaarden.

It's funny going to the Belgian Bar and watching suited ****ers drinking Stella. It's not a bad drop, not a brilliant one either, but of all the Belgian beers to drink, Stella is the Fosters of Belguim. Belgians barely drink it. The best local Belgian is Jupiler, it's like their VB and it's pure Gold for the price!! Shame you can't get it outside Belgium, just like VB for us.

My all time favourite was Abbotts, unfortunately it was taken off the market in the early 1990's.

Another for Coronas.

Suprised Redback only got a late mention, top drop and everyone on this forum should be drinking the stuff, its made at the Ex Ford Factory in Fremantle

XXXX is rough as guts, worse than VB.

Of course, Crownies go down well...

O/S stuff -

For those that have been to Bali, Bintangs a nice suck.
Got to liking San Miguel when in Spain a few months back,
purely for medicinal purposes, sank a lot of Guinness while in Dublin recently.

and of surprise, I took a liking to Budweiser while in the UK, then if that ran out the rough Carling carton was raided. Amazing how that Aussie urine (Fosters) is so big in the UK.

Crownie man myself, however was in Czech Republic last chrissie & some of their beers are to die for!.. Original Pilsner was one... Budvar (which was original Budweiser, & Nothing like the yank ****) was great, plus a myriad of equally yummy but unpronouncable ones.

Toohey's Extra Dry or Asahi. From the list Coronas and Heineken. Too many to choose from.

[QUOTE=Thunder]What about KB?

"Kiddies Beer" you could get it in large steel cans (30 years ago)

My favorite is Killkeny (mothers milk) :

There was a running joke that KB got re named Crown Larger. No KB was worse that Fosters.

Those boys at Matilda Bay know what they're doing.
