    ICJ verdicts are only valid if both parties accept the ICJ's jurisdiction
    Meddle not in the affairs of dragons, for you are crunchy and taste good with ketchup.

    Abusing Yellow is meant to be a labor of love, not something you sell to the highest bidder.

    They have Ararat, the poster not the rock pile - though he doesn't want to actually live there.

    Questionable assertions both.
    You wish.

    It is sh1t beer produced by a sh1t brewer. If that was your favourite Australian beer then your judgment on beer is as lacking as your judgement on historical truth. Oh, and 'lager' has one 'g'.
    Suggesting you like poor quality beer... isn't that a thought crime in Australia? At least a booting offense if not jail time.

    Still waiting for you to get up the guts to actually debate me.

    This should be included in the Lords Prayer

    Our Father, who art in heaven
    hallowed be thy Name,
    thy kingdom come,
    thy will be done,
    on earth as it is in heaven.
    Give us this day our daily bread
    And forgive us our trespasses,
    as we forgive those
    who trespass against us.
    And lead us not into temptation,
    but deliver us from Crown Lager,
    for it is shit beer produced by a shit brewer.
    For thine is the kingdom,
    and the power, and the glory,
    for ever and ever.
    Amen.

The best I can say for them is that they are better than anything with a 'Tooheys', 'Swan', 'West End' or 'XXXX' brand. Trans: most big Australian brewers suck. Coopers is uniformly good. Boags, Cascade & Powers (all bought up by larger brewers) remain good. There is also a ton of quality stuff coming from microbrewers.

    No, the crime in Australia is admitting that the beer we swill down by the keg is, in fact, poor quality. In that respect Ararat fits right in with the prevailing attitude of the great unwashed (and unschooled) who seem to think that any mass produced beer in Australia is 'the nectar of the Gods'. Crown is an average beer at an above average price. It is drinkable, which is more than I can say for a lot of our swill.

    In this case, sadly, I'll be the one getting the boot. On the other hand, Ararat has firmly aligned himself with the loud bigoted stupid nationalist demographic in Australia. Try to contain your surprise.


    He is a wolf hunter - I'm sure isn't not that he is a bigot who had no academic foundation to his argument against the principles of free speech and thought its just that he is stalking his prey.
    Yeah, I bet those Grey Wolves are just shaking in their hideouts at the thought. Perhaps we'd best stop distracting him from such important business.

    In all my years at WAB no one has ever challenged me to a fist fight.
    Probably because you are so tall & charming.

    Sounds good to me. Just keep my name off it. I literally live within a stone's throw of the manufacturer's vast Melbourne brewing complex - don't want the corporate hit squads out to get me.

    I live next to the brewery, seen how it works & tried more of the manufacturer's product than I should have - sadly it is possible.

    We've been over this, I happen to enjoy XXXX Gold quite a lot. Tooheys and Hahn's were acceptable, but barely. VB sucks balls, Fosters is "Australian for Shite"

    ....well I wasn't going to bring it up, but yes, you have expressed your love for a bit of 'rough trade' when it comes to beer. To each their own I suppose, but I've seen pubs virtually go out of business when they put Tooheys on tap. Tooheys actually bought some prominent high volume pubs to push product into Victoria wiht cheap Tooheys on tap - in the end they suffered the indignity of having to put CUB products on tap to keep the pubs from folding. Tooheys New is bad, Tooheys Old is undrinkable. CUB stuff is little better.

    Happily concur. Microbreweries couldn't survive if they produced the likes of Tooheys, Swan, West End, XXXX. Including anybrand that has released an Extra Dry, and most that have released a 'Blonde'
