Surely this is an oxymoron?:(

G:beer:
Cheer up Mr G you can get a few ales here:D . There's a rumour spreading that Boddingtons is available on draught at a pub in Caloundra:beer:. I can get Guinness in most pubs but it's expensive plus I'm trying to get used to the lager type beers entering into the spirit of all things Australian and all that :rolleyes:

Re: Aussie Beer ?
 
Have to say the two that topped my list were Carlton Cold and Carlton Midstrength.

Being in Brisbane there was lots of XXXX on offer which was OK and the VB was drinkable too but not top of the list.

What is your favourite Aussie Beer ? and why ? :beer:

For the record mine has got to be a good old, ice cold VB.

Why? Because Victoria Bitter has a unique strong taste that hits the spot on hot day :D

I'll be interested in hearing what you other pommie blokes like to drink down under when your partying :PARTY:

O'yeah and we should NOT forget the ladies

Sheila's, what's your current favourite sherry at the moment ? :p

Obviously Jack is my fave but when it comes to Beer Melbourne bitter is nicer than VB, anf then being a soon to be WA resident I've gotta say EB.

Been a few years since I was there, so hoping it's still around.

In Qld, the boxes of stubbies were called a "Carton" and you could either buy them hot or cold....

Used to get a giggle going in and asking for "A Cold Carton of Carlton Cold"

Try saying that when your back buying your seond carton...

;)
