What? You mean not all Aussies drink Foster's? Yes, light beer generally means low calories (big deal, ~100 vs. ~150) in the U.S., but of course we have tasteless non-alcoholic beers too. Thanks to the Atkins craze there's even low-carb low-cal stuff, which is an abomination. I'm mostly trying to drink less but drink Sam Adams or Pete's or St. Pauli Girl when I do.
I don't know what it is, but I never got into liking Pete's or even Sam Adams that much... I am much more of a fan of Bass or Newcastle... even the occaisional Guiness or Bodington's

Ooh, them's fighting words!
Think about it for a second -- we export enough of the stuff that just about every bar in America has it on tap. It should be obvious we don't want any of it for ourselves.
