Usually, the cheapest full strength beer on tap. Usually VB or Carlton Draught. rAndy aL Send a noteboard - 30/01/2010 03:38:05 AM
Why? Taste? Nostalgia? Price point?


What? Are there no Aussies left on the board?

I have to admit, the price comes into my decision. Also a bit of nostalgia, because Dad always drinks Victoria Bitter (VB).

If I'm not at a bar, then I might go a Becks/Boags/Heineken/Crown Lager or something else entirely. Who wants to drink the same thing all the time?
Carlton Draught Ads are awesome

You'll just have to visit the beer country and drink them locally. Legolas - 28/01/2010 10:10:10 PM 770 Views
