Melbourne Bitter

Brewed by Carlton & United Breweries (CUB)
Style: Pale Lager
Melbourne, Victoria, Australia

Yet another good beer from CUB - I find it very similar to VB, however I find it comes into it's own when served on tap.

Another true blue stock aussie beer. Somewhat quiet achiever when up against VB, but in the same fresh bold lager style. Always best bought by the "slab". Somewhat sweeter than VB.

Slighly drinkable if someone else brings it to my house. Very similar to VB but i find the aftertaste isn't so harsh and i can drink this with comfort if someone hands it to me otherwise pass me a coldy anyday.

This beer is exactly the same as VB. Why the change in bottle. Oh I have an idea, it is the rejects of the VB batch. Like VB, this beer is shit, utter piss shit.

To dry for my taste, abit to rusty in the aftertaste.

Some guy said this was great for a change from VB. Um, hello? I thought the whole ’change’ thing was precisely at issue. This is the same crap as all generic Aussie piss. Sure its refreshing on a hot day, but so is puting a packet of frozen peas down me undies. At least VB has street cred, while all this stuff has left is the beer - yuck!

Quite dry. Refreshing on a hot day, and nice for a change from VB every once in a while. Much what you’d expect from the CUB stable.

Medium gold clear under a small short lasting white head. Very faint hint of floral fruit and bitter hops and something that reminds me of soapy eggs. Very light watery body. Medium stale bitter start and mild corny sweet middle etc.
