Fosters Lager: 8

Taste: 2 Finish: 2 Visual: 3 Aroma: 1
Total: 8

Foster's Lager is widely known. And when you go to Outback Steakhouse, you have to order a 22 of Fosters. Never mind that Australians don't drink Fosters and consider it swill. The Brits and Americans love it! Let's see if Australia doesn't know it makes the best beer ever!


It's color is a decent golden. The head is on the thin side but it is a nice foam. The smell is of generic "beer" with an undertone of boiled vegetables.

It's bubbly on the tongue. It's very bright. There is really no flavor to it at all. A bland hop. No sweetness. No fruit. Nothing. It finishes with no lingering off flavors. Basically, this beer is nothing. The only positive is that it doesn't taste bad or skunked.

Well, there it is. Foster's is crap carbonated water with some beer flavor added. Why does anyone drink this? Looks like Australia got it right.
