Seriously, what are Austrialians good for? From what I can tell their lives consist solely of talking in the most irritating accent known to man, watching sport, having Barbeques and performing revenge attacks on stingrays? Drinking at a 'Walkabout' bar is the point at which I will know with certainty that my life is worthless and will kill myself. I certainly wouldn't trust them to brew me a decent beer and experience tends to prove me right.
I'll admit that my experience is limited to perhaps 3 beers: Castlemaine XXXX, Fosters Lager and Victoria Bitter all of which are ghastly. You may think its unfair of me to generalise, after all Austrailia is a bastion of culture having provided us with some of the world's great artists(Rolf Harris), musicians (Holly Valance) and indestructable super-heroes (Steve Irwin). Where would we be without Home and Away, digeridoos and boomerangs? Australia is perhaps second only to America in the English speaking world when it comes to persecuting indigenous people. And who could forget that they also have animals with pouches and a big rust-coloured rock?
So maybe they can brew good a beer, but something tells me that would be expecting too much of them. Maybe they should stick to making piss-lagers, refining their ability to sound like cretins and generally being inferior to all other peoples in everything except sport.
