Aussie Beers in the UK
 

Was asked by the parents-in-law (who wished to celebrate Australia day with a bottle of Aussie beer) where they could buy something decent (like not Fosters or XXXX) and came upon this site. They've got Coopers Pale, Coopers Sparkling, Coopers Stout, James Boag's premium, Victoria Bitter, Carlton Cold, Crown Lager, Hahn premium, Toohey's Extra Dry and Toohey's New.

Just thought it might interest Vash and the other Aussies living in the UK. :) ;)

Or some of us who want to get used to the taste before we get there mmmmmmmm.

Re: Aussie Beers in the UK
 

Can certainly recommend the Boags and the Crown. Great beer. :thumbup:

Re: Aussie Beers in the UK
 

You really wouldn't want to touch most of those with a barge pole. Tooheys gives me a massive headache, but if you can get any of the James Squire offerings I would defo recommend them.

:D

Tooheys Extra Dry Platinum, Yum.

Gives me a terrible hangover though. :( Hopefully I'll get used to it :unsure:

Re: Aussie Beers in the UK
 

I have tried to get used to it... and failed miserable. massive headache material.

Re: Aussie Beers in the UK
 

Used to get that off Stella and 1664 ... minging headaches. Loved the beer - hated the cranium-piercing aftermath. :blink:

'LALALA' I'm not listening :D

Didn't want to hear that, you're supposed to say 'Yes dear' haven't your wives taught you anything :rofl:

Re: Aussie Beers in the UK
 

try chewing on a damp piece of cardboard and you got the taste of a good quality premium aussie beer .:)

Waitrose sell Coopers and so do Tesco.

Re: Aussie Beers in the UK
 

Yeah we bought some Coopers from Tesco last week. I'm not much for it, but OH loves it!! I'll stick to the wine.

Someone posted on here that they found Little Creatures Pale Ale in Threshers in the UK. Someone has good taste over there.

Re: Aussie Beers in the UK
 

I'll go with that as well.. Little Creatures is OK, as is the Blue Tongue stuff.

Re: Aussie Beers in the UK
 

You can also get it in some of the big Waitrose and Sainsbury's although they don't always have it in stock.

I shall never forget when my Ozzie friend produced some Hahn to take to 232Bar and annqldau's BBQ - It was 2% proof FFS!!!

I made shandy with it for a laugh..... (oh and so I could drive home)
