    I've not seen it for a while. I don't remember it being only 4.8% alcohol either.

    It was always known to be the lager for rougher drinkers.

    aye I thought it was 7-8 % as they proclaim it as a "strong lager" on the can.

    I've never actually tasted it, I just remember the can because my Mum used to run a bar and I always asked why that brand had a wummin on the tin.

    Now that I live in Aus, Fosters.

    Weird how it's promoted as the quintessential Aussie beer at home yet nocunt sells it here never mind drinks it.
