Are there any Sydney based oz-bargainers out there who regularly buy beer?
What are your tactics to minimize the expense, do you buy in bulk? Dan Murphy's? What is the best brand from a value perspective?
Cheap Beer?

It is in the boxes of wine.

Come on….it's Chateau de Shoebox
My go to tactic, I often use the deals on the bottom of shopping dockets from Colesworth.
Usually cases for around $40. Or 6 packs for $10. Seems to have increased to $12 more recently.Last time I bought a case I just wandered into Dan Murphy's and picked up a case of Steersman Blonde for $39. Bit of a mistake - it's not that nice.
I don't think I have ever paid more than $42 for a case. I tend to look for a low carb full strength lager style.
Whatever is on special.
Are you a member of the Dan Murphy's club? They often have good specials.
Aldi also has cheap beer.Are you a member of the Dan Murphy's club? They often have good specials.
It's free to join and I've noticed the prices are quite often cheaper even without member offers. If you're an alcoholic like me it's a must-have
If you drink a lot of beer is it cheaper to get one of those home brewing kits probably the cheapest beer and some say certain brews are drinkable?
Decent home brew is cheap… If you ignore capex and the temptation to keep buying bits ;)
This. Bought a coopers kit from this deal, first brew turned out alright, looking to improve on next one. I would always see the reduced cans at my woolies but never thought anything of it, was able to get a few $7 cans recently.
Hollandia Premium is quite palatable. Full strength beer from Holland 4.7%
$30 a case from BWS. Don't forget to use discounted gift cards and Cash Rewards for an extra 7-8% off. And get free delivery for orders over $100 within an hour.
Also, use 2 different everyday rewards cards, when one is not being used, there's a good chance of getting 1000-2000 points offers from time to time.
Aldi beer is good.
$22.99 for a carton of 24 330ml stubbies is hard to beat and not a bad drop either. NZ made?

if you join the hump clube they send out a $10 voucher off a slab every 1-2 weeks.
- This was a question I used to ask ALOT in my late teens. The solution I came up with was:
- Bludge off friends
- Take 4 Nurofen before a session
- Don't eat before a session
- Smoke a brew before a session
- Walk around drinking peoples empties which often contain at least 39 mils of totally drinkable quoff.
- Coogee bay bottle-o used to sell a hideous drop called Tooheys Red for $24 a case.
- Time travel back to before Kevin 07 decided an alcho tax was what the working class asked.
Sol beer is under $40 a case and very similar in taste to Heineken (may be brewed in same place?)
Aldi beer does the job. I get their pale ale - 24 bottles for $34. It's perfectly drinkable.
According to the anti-alcohol movement, "cheap" alcohol is a problem in Australia. I ask, where is this "cheap" alcohol you speak of?
