Johnny Drama Posted May 26, 2015 Share Posted May 26, 2015 Never met an Aussie that drinks Fosters apart from my old man who used to have an odd beer on Sunday afternoons so he'd have a Foster's when he first came to Australia. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DieselDaisy Posted May 26, 2015 Share Posted May 26, 2015 They advertise this stuff as ultra Australian, complete with two Australian morons in these adverts they run in the UK, trying unsuccessfully to hook up with Australian babes. They even have the word 'tinny' on the can. Terrible. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Johnny Drama Posted May 26, 2015 Share Posted May 26, 2015 I hate when brands use colloquialisms formally. McDonald's here are rebranding stores as "Maccas", the term everyone here calls it. Cringeworthy indeed. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Powerage5 Posted May 26, 2015 Share Posted May 26, 2015 Brooklyn 1/2 Ale. Not a fan of it - too hoppy for my taste.Have you ever tried Carlsberg Special Brew? It's a lovely rich ale, you get hints of chocolate and quite a delicate finish. Very popular in the upmarket sort of places in Europe. You should definately try it if your into quality ales. If you can't get it in the states I'd be happy to ship you a crate.Never even heard of Carlsberg Special Brew. I have the regular Carlsberg pretty often when I'm in Europe - it's sort of my go-to when I'm not feeling adventurous; it's a good beer and fairly cheap anywhere you go (Relatively speaking). All I've ever seen in the US is the regular Carlsberg and the Elephant (Which I'm more indifferent to), but Carlsberg is expensive (For what it is) over here - I pay like USD $9.50 for a 6 pack. I'll have to see if I can find the Special Brew, if not I'll definitely track it down next time I'm in Europe Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wasted Posted May 26, 2015 Share Posted May 26, 2015 What about Castemaine XXXX. They had great adverts. In Asia McDonald's has prawn burgers. I'm not sure if that's everywhere. KFC serves rice and water at breakfast with a donut type stick. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

wasted Posted May 26, 2015 Share Posted May 26, 2015 Exactly I remember but I never got one, that's the insidious nature of advertising. The Guinness ones were genius too, as everyone thought they be sophisticated for drinking but really you just get diarrhoea. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

arnold layne Posted May 26, 2015 Share Posted May 26, 2015 Well I blew $300 on new brakes for the car. I know I got scammed but at least I can afford it and that is 300 x 1.5 miles I can redeem on airfaire.But that's going to tighten my budget. I had to wisen up on beer. Figured $18 for 30 Pabsts is a sound investment. It will keep me stupid on my days off and dumb down the fact I just spent $300 fucking dollars. It is okay though. I like Pabst and I like my job.

J Dog Posted May 27, 2015 Share Posted May 27, 2015 Opened my last bottle of homemade wine left over from the holidays. Tastes really, really good. Which is actually a bad thing because it's really, really strong. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
