Try to find Coopers' Ales (pale or dark), Carlton United Breweries Crown Lager or Cold Filtered. Don't *ever* drink Australian beer from a can, it's just not worth it. In fact don't drink *any* beer from a can (except possibly Caffrey's Ale). > You're right about American beers, especially the three largest > brewers. Are we the only ones that produce a light beer?
