Typical Cockroach from NSW.

XXXX happens to be one of the most popular beers around for a general all purpose general drinking beer. AND you dont even include it on your list.

My favourite happens to be Cascade Premium, or TED platinums... but how can you forget XXXX.

Almost tax free HOME BREW! 27 longnecks for $12-20. All you tailor beer people must like getting ripped off! My cheap drinking habit justifies owning a V8.

What I love about XXXX Gold...just wish there was (apart from my home brew) a mid strength dark beer on the market.

Well for a cheap refreshing slurp I can't go past the Tooheys New. Crownies go down nicely with a BBQ, and TED is great for sitting around the house getting tanked. Of course Reschers refreshes haha but havent seen that in ages.

I voted Tooheys New though because it is cheap and what I get most often.

EDIT: Can't stand Coronas have to say. It's like a Mexican piddles into a bottle and sells it for twice what it's worth.

Haven't been back to U-Brew-It to make another batch, so I've been enjoying Mountain Goat Hightail Ale of late. I drink this on tap in the CBD, awesome stuff.

I picked up some Little Creatures Bright Ale today, should go down well on the weekend.

Becks, or pilsner Urquell at the moment.

I can't believe how many people like Corona. Need lemon to give it any flavour and I wouldn't trust the water from mexico.

All Coopers beers are good - Dark Ale and Vintage Ale are my favourites.

Actually surprisingly not.

I was working for the breweries over there and it was £16 (approx $38) a carton which is cheaper than over here. Work that one out : I couldn't and it was imported.

VB is a nice drop I just cant work out how they get the cats to squat over the bottles.


Corona is a good early morning beer when your really hungover, but XXXX gold is a much nicer way to start the day.

Soverigns were the go when they were out. Tasted fantastic and were very smooth.

But generally if I'm hot and thirsty I'll drink it if its cold.

I drink and reccommend;

XXXX Gold and Bitter
Crown
Carlton Draught
Coopers Pale ale
Boags Draught
Guinness
TEDS
Swan Draught
Emu Bitter
Spieght's Draught
Stella's
