Nah never seen a 30 pack of VB.

Thought so, best product Carlton came up with, go size for a weekend away

Yet you pay more for light beer, how does that work ??

Nah 2 slabs is the right amount for a weekend

Came across a truck that lost its load driver said go ya hardest on the contents all written off on insurance. Bummer was it was all vb got 30 cartons of 30 cans of the crap 2 was out from Xmas. Still couldn't give the s1t away. So we drank 900 cans YUCk

G'Day Threedogs,

I was surprised too, and they don't have it online (I wanted to make sure I wasn't imagining things).

Maybe they dump all their end of line stuff in Perth, charge an arm and a leg for it and figure we're used to it !

Space is a bit of an issue living in a unit pearcey, not just for brewing but also for storing 4wd stuff and working on the truck, and having mates over and.........

What makes me larf with all this "Alcoholic society " before the alco pop tax came in , you know the alco pop drinks that caused all the alcohol fuelled issues, that were never there before alco pops .....
Before the tax got passed in parliment ,the government charged the extra tax, people who couldnt justify the cost bought cheap wine ,or bottles of whisky ,and mixed their own,so the alco pop fiasco was that, a beat up especially for the budget buyers
So they charged an alco pop tax that didnt get passed first,then when they saw the millions it made ,it magically became a legalised tax
Ive gone against beer as the daily drink,i go spirits and mix myself,dry ginger ale,its the same price ,actually per volume of liquid its cheaper
I can get home brewed spirits that leave the so called over priced OP stuff for dead

Now I'm sure I'll offend someone but the options were 24 x 330ml Stella cans for $38 ?! or 24 x 500ml Oetinger cans for $40 (I think of them as Aldi beer even though there's no Aldi in WA). Easy choice from where I was standing.

I don't know how you can just do spirits MQ MAD, I need a warm up and a cleansing warm down. Otherwise I'd be thinking I had a problem!
