Coopers To Brew Budweiser

[Duff]

I don't mind Bud on tap in the US. Cheap and easy to drink the Yanks under the table with.

Does anyone know where I can buy Harbin beer in Adelaide?

Possibly '1st Choice' at Collinswood (North East Road next to the Hampstead Hotel) - they've got a huge range. Give 'em a call and they might save you the trip.

Absolutely. Funny thing, Bud on tap is never more than $2/12oz. Happy hour and you'll see offers like 10 Buds (bottle) for $10.

I realise production cost and excise will push this product into the $tratosphere and no doubt Coopers marketing will peddle the stuff as premium american lager, etc.

I don't have a problem with Coopers or CUB etc. brewing Bud but I very much have a problem paying a penny more than what's it worth. And it ain't worth a whole hell of a lot.

we should be getting down to the botttlos that sell imported bud now, take pictures of the price and when they release BUL bud and charge like a wounded bull, go to the papers and out them.

recently one of the bjcp guys picked up a 30 can cube of bud cans for under $40. doubtful coopers are going to sell it that low.

Surely that beer has a bad enough name here (whether deserved or not) that the people who drink nothing but the beers that emulate it will stay away in droves?

how many people will see that its 'the king of beers' and not switch. the branding bud has acehived in the US is pehenominal as is the overseas recognition. more so you'll get people who think they are intelligent and know something about beer, touting that bud is a historic beer in europe also ie they have gotten confused with the real bud v the crappy american name rip off... Budweiser Budvar Brewery v budwiser Anheuser-Busch

up untill about 6 months ago Coopers was distrbuting Bud that was from the USA in Australia, but not making it! Since then Coopers lost the contract and i think it was to CUB? So if anyone was going to make Bud now in oz it would be the new contractors
