A buck-a-beer! Lowest price ever for this. Normally $37. Been drinking this for a while now and I don't mind it. It's probably the best of the budget beers @ BWS. Very drinkable and quite a subtle taste.

It's a full strength 4.6% and made in Holland.

They're not short dated either, you should find Best Before dates to be around July next year.

Checked a few stores elsewhere in Aus and seems to be readily available, so should be nationwide.

Don't forget 1% Cashback with SB/CR.

Check your emails too, I have an offer for spend $130, get $10 off instantly or spend $170 for $15 off.(In store only)

If you want delivery, it's free for orders over $100 and delivered within 1 hour.

If you have Woolworths gift cards, that's another 5% off.

For those that have purchased, let us know what you reckon of it in the comments. 🙂

    Can or stubby?

    The icon shows stubbies, but the box looks flat like cans.

    Edit: It's cans.

    What a shame, I love a cheap beer, and don't mind windmills, but I have to draw the line at cans.

    • Vert93 on 27/08/2019 - 15:53

      Cans let in less oxygen than bottles so the beer will stay fresher for longer in a can.

      They also have a smaller carbon footprint in production and also shipping as they are lighter and pack more efficiently.

      Not sure why there is this misguided obsession with bottled beer in Australia.

        Drinking from a glass stubby is the most enjoyable way to drink beer IMHO. God, I'm feeling thirsty just thinking about it.

          Nah you've got to pour it into a glass, not that I do that often, I don't want any extra washing up!

        At home, I always use a double-walled glass, keeps it cool for an hour, no rush to drink your beer and no condensation all over your table.

      • [Deactivated] on 27/08/2019 - 17:17

        There is a noticeable taste difference between can & bottle.
        So noticeable you can do a blind test and pick it every time

        • Vert93 on 27/08/2019 - 17:32
          +2

          Pour a fresh can and fresh stubby into separate glasses. I'll castrate myself and eat them if you can tell a difference.

          The only difference will be in the bottled beer being more oxidized as it ages and will go stale more quickly than the same beer in a can.

          • [Deactivated] on 27/08/2019 - 18:03

            @Vert93: Were you told this at your wine tasting class?

          • Tank evil on 27/08/2019 - 18:18

            @Vert93: The difference is the aftertaste so technically its not the beer that taste diff but the bottle after taste. This is why some ppl prefer certain beers in a can and others in a bottle or off the tap if you like the creamier taste :P

      • cakesyy on 27/08/2019 - 17:42

        This is so true, but a glass is almost as good.

      • soob on 28/08/2019 - 09:07

        I drink Guinness from cans and it's about as good as you can get other than on tap in Ireland, but Coppers pale ale in cans is foul, which is a bloody shame as I can fit more in the camp fridge. Sadly most beers I've compared are better from bottle, though that's a small sample really as they are rarely offered in both. Possibly plastic internal coating in cans reacting with the beer?

        • evanssm2jp on 28/08/2019 - 17:19

          Totally agree - I usually drink Coopers Red & noticed they are/have released it in cans recently - will be very displeased if they move to canning only eventually! I think the issue with Coopers is that it's a live/conditioned beer so there needs to be a certain amount of activity from the yeast/sugars after bottling. The bottles are fairly thick (especially the 750ml's which allows for more residual sugar and hence more fermentation after bottling - I assume the cans can't handle the additional pressure - they seem to have very little yeast and are not cloudy to the same degree & it's the yeast which makes them taste so good! Without the yeast to me they taste more metallic or sharp…not terrible but way better from the bottles…

  • tellhimhesdreaming on 27/08/2019 - 15:28

    Except in the NT where we have a ridiculous floor price on alcohol so there's no such thing as cheap booze.

        $1.30 per standard drink. So this carton can't ever be sold for less than $37.44

      I wouldn't rate it very highly either. It's a simple budget beer, light tasting and easy on the pocket. It's never gonna get rave reviews at this price.

      I'd rather have this though than 3 times the price for a craft beer.

        IMO on a hot day after working in the yard a simple lager downed in big gulps is better than sipping on that small batch perfumey stuff.

      • MrBear on 28/08/2019 - 12:06

        Not if you make it yourself.

        I get 57 x 330ml bottles for about a cost of $59 (liquid wort + yeast + dry hops) and the quality is excellent. That's ~ $1 a beer.

        Guessing it was an equivalent beer! ;) - Just trying one now and understand why they are cheap, but to be honest it's still better than the typical club beers such as vb, tooheys, carlton, etc. I'm usually a Coopers drinker…can't imagine they would have done a case of sparkling for $24!

        No I couldn't pick "anything". I wasn't there to rip them off by picking the most boutique or expensive beer possible. It was suggested for me to pick something else, within reason, so I did. It's a $55 beer (at BWS) that I got for $24. Not sure what your issue is.

    Bought a case at BWS Niddrie Drive (Essendon). They have 5 left. It's going to be my go-to beer whenever I'm out of good beer.

    I'm a believer that bad/mediocre beer tastes better when it's hot outside (and you're desperate for a cold one). So probably will drink most of it once it starts to get above 27 degrees or so.

    • bk1973 on 03/09/2019 - 17:45

      Finally tried it. Does taste like an in-between of a pale ale and a lager (more like a lager though). It's not bad, but not amazing either. Definitely well well worth $1 a can to drink on a hot day. Another good Ozbargain purchase.
