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."

Pours a clear golden color. Medium white head, rather fast diminishing. It leaves a good lacing. Aroma is malty, grainy/cereally with metallic hints. Some herbs, peachy traces and some vegetables. Flavor tends to the bitter-ish side with herbal hints. Tea, grass, metal, fresh leaves and lettuce come to mind after several sips. Highly carbonated, light bodied, refreshing. Finish is metallic and leaves a malty/sweet aftertaste. OK. An australian Heineken.

Flavorless, pale, light pale lager. Would drink it over a Bud or a Coors, but still watery with a sour end, bitter aftertaste.

Golden in color. Grassy malt in aroma. Clean easy drinking, with not too much in the flavor department. Overall an smooth beer for hot summer days.

One of the better pale lagers. Pale yellow, yet less pale than some pale lagers, very little head or lacing. Gainy nose. Taste is simple and a nice balance of malt and hop. Fosters is quite a bit hoppier than the average pale lager too, to the extent that it has a brief hop finish.

típico exemplar do gênero, com espuma branca, média e irregular, de rápida diminuição, corpo claro e densidade rala, de coloração amarela. O aroma é frutado, incrementado com pão claro, flores e mel, combinação esta até certo ponto interessante. Seu sabor, por outro lado, é moderadamente doce no início do gole e moderadamente amargo no final, sensação esta que perdura durante todo o gole. No paladar, um corpo leve e aguado, de carbonatação intensa e final metálico
