Description: Lager, 4.9 percent Alcohol. Brewed in Australia since 1888.

Newest Review: ... of lager when poured. It is also sold in most bars and nightclubs and being honest is a really cheap and cheerful lager and ... more

 ... not a hugely tasty drink. It is 4.9% alcohol. It is a fizzy lager which doesn't flow as easy as many others, it is golden in colour but tastes more like motor oil than lager, it is too fizzy, has a metallic taste and if I have 2-3 cans my stomach really hurts and I get a stitch, I don't rate this lager, the advertising is patronising and the product is cheap tasting and cheap looking, I associate Fosters with poor quality and only really drink the lager when its the only drink available....more

Crowned Review Fosters Lager: Different... (480 words)

I have to say that although this stuff is actually rather…hmmm, well bland really, when drunk on it’s own – I really rather like it. Fosters is best described as “clean”… it doesn’t really have much of a taste on it’s own, and doesn’t really sustain much of a head. When you get Fosters lager on draught, you’ll notice that what you basically get is a golden coloured lager beer that has virtually no head at all. You basically get a glass of thin golden liquid. That’s another thing about it – the texture – it is feels very, very thin on the tongue (if that makes sense… ...  Read the complete review

Fosters, the "amber nectar". The archetypal Aussie lager, or so we're led to believe. I recently holidayed in Sydney with my bro and found that nobody drank fosters at all (with beers like tooheys and victoria bitter to hand who could blame them). I guess the Australian-ness is just a gimmick. Tastewise Fosters is quite fizzy and fairly bland (My mate rob would skin me if he read this as he swears by Fosters). I am definately a lager man rather than a real ale coinniseur and for me Fosters really sits snuggly in the middle of the road. Its hard to get overly excited by it and yet its a good reliable beer (widely available and no surprises). ...  Read the complete review

Premium Review Fosters Lager: Long live middle of the road beers (273 words)

In my experience, most Australian's dismiss Fosters as one of their beers and think us brits stupid for thinking it as the beer of Australia. However, after drinking a few of the beers they are more proud of (such as Carlton, VB, XXXX and Tooheys), I think they should have a bit more pride in what is their only drinkable export. I'm not saying that Fosters is a great beer, far from it, in fact, it's just not a bad beer. There are many bad beers about, most for a lot more money than Fosters, horrible over yeasted beers or beers so fizzy you may well explode. Fosters however, is adequate in most ways, it's light, not too strong or weak at a usual 4.1%, and most ...  Read the complete review

Premium Review Refreshing and smooth, and cheap too! (330 words)

Fosters Larger, the Amber Nectar, apparently. This is widely known as an Australian beer, just watch the adverts on TV and this is the impression we are meant to be given. However it is brewed here in the UK. I must admit though if I am drinking Lager from a can, Fosters is one of my favorites. It has a very nice fresh taste. It is not the strongest of beers which is not always a good thing, but I would say it has to be one of the most refreshing beers around. Great for a sunny saturday afternoon in the garden. I do find though is its high gas content and can really give you the burps. This also means that I don't tend to be able to drink ...  Read the complete review

I know it says 4.9 percent up there, but that's not usually the strength we get it here. Either way, I'm going to review this 'lager' as a cautionary tale to people not yet familiar with Fosters... For some reason in the UK we tend to drink really awful lagers like Fosters and Carling in large amounts. It might be because it's cheap, it might be because it's constantly in our faces and we've been conditioned into thinking it's not like drinking watery metal... whatever the reason, here's the truth: It's fizzy. Like, really fizzy as if you just swallowed a pocket of wet air. If you're drinking Fosters from the can *shudder* then the liquid actually ...  Read the complete review
