Vb is classic but is in its twilight in my area anyway

>>13046546
Before I saw the full size of that image, I thought it says VICTORIA HITLER on the label.

VB is no better than Fosters. Bluepilled Australians will not admit this.

>>13046546
It’s a lager designed to taste like an ale. There are much worse beers out there, like XXXX Gold.

>>13046546
VB is great when it is hot outside.
Best to drink with BBQ meats.
Xxxx is sweet tasting swill that I couldn't get more then half a long neck into me before chucking it.

>>13046566
Aussie here
No one in Australia drinks fosters it's just for export .
Vb tastes like shit.

Most aussie poofters drink micro brewed shit. The men drink Xxxx

Fucking Queenslanders drinking bottled piss.

Yeah I've drank many a VB. Back in the Norties my mate was working on a farm and I went and stayed with him for the weekend and we lived off VB and party pills.

The first time I tried VB was when I was 17ish and it was directly after getting pissed on Heineken so the taste was a shock.

It’s alright for getting pissed but definitely not the greatest beer.

a fucking VB LONG NECK

>called Victoria Bitter
>it's a lager not a bitter
What did Aussies mean by this?

>>13046693

bonus points if cheap or wide availability

>>13046958
Something inoffensive and watery like Great Northern. Just take care you don't buy the midstrength shit.

>>13046589
>sweet tasting
>hopped with Pride of Ringwood, a strain of hops developed by the CSIRO for unrivalled bitterness
>Still punches out 9-11% AA on a regular basis
You clearly have no fucking idea what you’re talking about. Fuck off.

>>13046951
As a launcestonian who can literally see the brewery from his back porch, Boag’s is breddy gud.

>>13046949
Most of our most mainstream "bitters" are lagers. It's a literal buzzword.

>>13047017
Great Northern manages to be both watery and offensive though.

the only valid opinion on vb

>>13046546
He looks like the kind of guy that would get a hangover from one wine cooler. No offense.

>>13046693
met an aussie yesterday who loved fosters and was sad he couldn't get it back in Sydney

>It’s a lager designed to taste like an ale.
Is that what it's supposed to be? Wouldn't making ale be hell cheaper?

>>13046958
Carlton Dry Lime
Henniger
Corona
Or just make your own. Its easy and much cheaper.

>>13047245
>Its easy
Is it? Seems like a bit of a hassle with all the different stages you can fuck it up.

I have made 80liters of beer and cider and I have yet too fuck it up. Get a Morgans brew kit and follow the instructions. Which are
1. Sanatise fermenter with a 1 cap of the Morgans sanatiser
2. Fill sink up with hot water
3. Put can of choice of beer in the hot water
4. Put 3 liters of boiling water from the kettle
5. Open can and put in fermenter
6. Put a kilo of dextrose in the fermenter
7. Mix
8. Fill with cold water to 23Liters
9. Put thermometer sticker on (comes with Morgans kit)
10. Seal it
11. Put on airlock and fill with water
12. Let it sit for 10 days
13. Sanatise bottles
14. Fill bottles
15. Wait 2 weeks
16. Done
Its literally fool proof
The only time you can fuck up is during sanitation. But I haven't had a problem since I wash my fermenter with about 50mls of unscented bleach, shake it around. Then add a few spoons of unscented Coles brand napisan, fill with water and leave it over night.
Once I made ginger beer in it and I didn't use bleach and napisan. Made the next brew not taste nice. Was still drinkable. But yeah. To Sanatise the bottles I also just fill the sink with hot water and napisan and fill them up and shake them around and my beers always taste nicer than store bought.
And its $20 makes 2.5 cartons worth of beer

>>13047279
Oh yeah another way you can fuck it up is by getting the temp over 26 degrees C for too long. You cab accidentally hit around 35 degrees for a day and it won't ruin it. If you go under 18C beer will stop fermenting. But I have never had it go over 26 or under 18.
Just make sure to check your hydrometer readings when you start your brew in the fermenter and when its done fermenting so you can get an alcohol % reading.

>>13046546
I like it.

Why don't they have a more traditional malty nutty brown ale/Yorkshire Bitter?
And there's so much potential to combine it with those yeast flavours to get something rivalling the Belgians.
