I would have sued them for tasting like Camels piss.

Ha ha, in all my the years I have seen my mates and I drink plenty of different beers. But we have never ever thought about having a fosters.

Fosters is Crown Lager overseas but even Crown Lager is rubbish. Never understood why people think it is premium beer. It is just a turd wrapped in a gold label...

 

[Gronk]

I get odd reactions from merkins OS when they suggest that I might like a Fosters and I tell them that nobody in Australia actually drinks that crap.

Wouldnt disagreed, got almost a case in the fridge my old boy won and it's about to go out of date. It's being sitting there for 6 months. Oh well, it's going to be offered to guests over the silly season.

I'd say that Fosters is basically tasteless, rather than offensive (from what I can remember).

A mate of mine's dad used to be the head scientist at CUB (back in the 70s), and he reckons that several of the beers (back then at least) came from the same vat....just tapped at different heights.

Try ordering a Yoplait in France.

I don't mind the old Fosters. But, i don't mind Tooheys Red either...

Like most lagers if I am honest.

It's completely true and unless they have recently changed it VB, Crown Lager and Carlton Cold all start out in the same vat. Crownies are just tarted up VB!!!

The crown lager bottle was the best thing about it.

Just translating this from the Weather Thread in the PD. Stuff gets missed there.

213 km/h winds equates to a T2 tornado.

Following photo of damage from Kurnell would confirm this.

This has gone viral today.

Turn your phone into a lightsaber.

Last year I was talking to a Professor of Physics at the ANU, and he reckons we'll never, ever make a light sabre. I told him to raise his expectations.
