I've heard lots of arguments about the quality of beer in Oz. Regardless of
the quality of the brew, the quality of the beer-drinkers there is
legendary, especially if measured by standards of quantity and speed of
consumption. And they have lots of fun doing it. /jim

I have heard only good things about Oz in general and Sydney in
particular, so it would do my heart and soul massive amounts of good
to visit your country. However, it would do my wallet some degree of
bad.
I do take issue with your contention that Oz beer is the best in the
world, just because they do good adverts. Perhaps you mean that,
because Fosters, Castlemaine etc... is as weak as Bud, Millers,
Molsom, Labatts, etc, and because it only tastes good cold, it goes
well with a hot climate, eating outside and drinking lots :>) OK,
I'll go along with that: you can only drink 2 or 3 bottles of decent
beer before feeling tired...
One day soon, we shall visit.
