Unless I was excruciatingly drunk when I read the label, Bass and Killian's are IRISH, not BRITISH! (so is Guinness) 
I never talk about Australian geography, other than the beach and the topless women upon it! And usually it ends up going off the beach and turns into a long discourse on the toplessness of the women on the beach, you know, the beach where the women GO TOPLESS! Oh wait, I get it, "geography" is a euphemism for the feminine form , the topless variety!
OK, I'll stop.

Killian's is Irish (hell it's in the name) but I'm pretty sure Bass is English.

Bass is English - Burton upon Trent (and is not very good nowdays).
For a good beer try Adnams (brewed in Southwold).
If you want something canned that can travel then Boddingtons draught (served cold but still drinkable in quantity).
Great British Beer Festival is at Kensington Olympia from 31 Jul to 4 Aug.
Watch out for some interesting posts over that period.

Sorry nr, but warm suds belong in a washing machine, not a beer glass.

I would tend to agree.. warm beer is Not Tasty (tm).
In reply to Justins post about german beer... Yes, I like german beer (pretty much anything dark) with the exception of Amstel.. (wait.. i cant remember.. is Amstel from Holland? I dont know).

Across the pond - had something good in a microbrewery once - can't remember much about it.

Does your warm dark beer come with a Spork on the side of the bottle?
I've tried to find a hot Colorado Rockies stream, but cold seems to be the way to go.

Just for the record, I don't know anyone in Australia that drinks Fosters.
Australia has great beers, and yes they are served cold.
Mmmmmm Coopers!

Since when did people ever admit that they drink beer made in their own country? Except for good ol' US microbreww, of course.

I personally think a pint of true west country scrumpy (a type of cider for all you non-Brits), brewed locally and drunk locally is 10 times better than any beer....
Although I do like Belgian white beer...Could be why I like living on the continent (Europe(except UK) for all you non-Brits...)...

Yuk!
Think I have had scrumpy - close correspondance to missing segments of memory.
Hoegarten - good blanche. They have it in the UK now but doesn't seem to taste the same - maybe to do with having to drink pints because bars are sooo slow (and close before daylight).
