COMMERCIAL DESCRIPTION
Filtered and pasteurised. Available with added carbon dioxide in keg, can and bottled formats. First brewed in 1887.
Available in Britain as Export.
"A light-coloured lager style, it presents full malt character with a balanced clean hop bitterness. Combined with a slightly hoppy, but yeasty/malty nose, Foster's lager is a full bodied beer with excellent drinkability."

This Fosters that I am rating is the beer brewed by Labatt in Canada. It’s not so bad, just like any borderline-cheap lager, but I bet the real Fosters is much cleaner and smoother, with the common hoppy taste. I recommend this for those days that you feel like having a different label on your regular Budweiser bottle

Fosters...Australian for beer. Yep. It’s pretty nice. Not too bitter. Aussies love their beer. I like their beer too!! G’day, mate!! Go get a 6!!

Good, refreshing lager with fruity undertones. Very easy to find and fairly cheap. The big can may look good but always go for the bottle or on tap. One of those ’anytime-anyplace’ beers.

A little soapy. Best when almost frozen.

I had the bottled version, and its made in Canada. This tasted like a Canadian lager, which as we know means better than American ones, but still far too light most of the time. Perhaps its better in Australia?

*It comes in BOTTLES TOO!* Great summer beer, cause its a thirst quencher. I personally don’t like drinking imported beer, but ’hey’, Australia’s clean. Good case, nice bottles, great beer.
