Some of you may have heard that VB is releasing a new beer called VB RAW.

It is a fresh new low carb lager brewed with four simple ingredients - Barley, Hops, Water and Yeast. Nothing artificial, Stripped back to the raw essentials.

Im working with the marketing team for the beers release and we are giving away free 6 packs of VB RAW. Theres no over the top advertising launch or mega TV ad, we just wont the beer to speak for itself then have YOU the people who drink it to do that talking.

This may sound stupid but who would be interested in some free beer :D. you will recieve a free 6 pack and all we ask is for you to kick back and have a few chilled ones on us, share them with you mates and then tell us what you think through a quick surey.

If your interested give a response so i can get an idea on the numbers because there is a minimum that must be met before we start sending them out

haha, I've got to agree with you there Scotty. And worse still, VB 'RAW'...just kidding Cav.:D
Still, it couldn't be worse than those 2 infamously bad Aussie beers...Fosters (in the blue can) and XXXX.

it tells me you have no idea what your talking about and just post for the sake of it. VB is the highest selling beer in australia, some would even call it an aussie icon. talk to people from other countries and what do they say about australia? paul hogan, croc hunter, kangaroos and VB! and this is a totaly different beer so why would you ****can it before you try it?

the reason i didnt put it in the topic was because what would grab peoples attention more that 'FREE BEER' havent you ever seen when someone is advertising the they put FREE BEER followed by 'now that i have your attention! thats what marketing is about mate getting peoples attention

why post if you have nothing but negitivity, its getting old fast

are you seriously comparing foster to VB. when foreigners come to this country what do they drink? VB, you may not like it but your just one person, its australia favourite beer. FACT.

out of everyone on here only you could find a problem with free beer.

scottya
18-09-2009, 06:06 PM
Do tell anthony what are my reason for my comments

Anthony Cav
19-09-2009, 01:44 AM
guys its not vb its a totaly different beer. to be honest im not a vb drinker ill take carlton draught over it any day, but i would never bag it. im a bartender and the only beer that out sells vb is corona, fact is australia as a whole loves vb. dont automatically cast off this new beer and **** can it because you dont like vb is all im saying. and scotty mate id love to drink king george, but we sell it for $40 a snifter a the bar and i dont have that kinda money, if u can drink it good luck to ya ur shout whenever ur in melb;)

scottya
19-09-2009, 01:53 AM
$40 a snifter
If you work at a pub that sells it that cheap what ever a snifter is do tell the name of te pub
Last time i got a glass of blue lable it wasnt even that cheap ?

And the pub were at right now wont sell me blue lable for any thing less then $25 a shot

Anthony Cav
19-09-2009, 01:57 AM
oh and scotty what i meant by reason for your comments was i thought maybe they were state of origin based, vb being from melbourne of course, and youve made clear your dislike for our fair state before. but from your last comment i realise i was on the wrong track, i now get you just plain dont like vb which is fair enough. but like i said dont bag or cast off the new beer till you try it.

a snifter is a bar term for a fancy glass which we serve blue label and conqac in. you get 2 fingers which is a equal to a shot. oh and never ask for ice with it 1 it dilutes it 2 you get less. inside tip from a bartender for ya

It is well known that humour is regional, but this is the first joke that I can say is truly Victorian:

At a national conference of the Australian Hotels Association, the general managers of Cascade Brewery (Tasmania), Tooheys (New South Wales), XXXX (Queensland), CUB (Victoria) and Coopers (South Australia) found themselves sitting at the same table for lunch.

When the waitress asked what they wanted to drink, the GM of Tooheys said without hesitation, "I'll have a Tooheys New."

The head of XXXX smiled and said, “Make mine a XXXX Gold."

To which the boss of Coopers rejoined, "I'll have a Coopers, the King of
Beers."

And the bloke from Cascade asked for "a Cascade, the cleanest draught on the
planet."

The General Manager of Carlton & United paused a moment and then placed his order: "I'll have a Diet Coke."

The others looked at him as if he had sprouted a new head.

"Well,” he said with a shrug, “if you ****ters aren't drinking beer, then neither will I."

And that my fellow beer drinkers sums it up....

hey Bushi,
there is a 'give infraction' tab that I want to test out...
The reasons for infractions include (among others), bad language, inappropriate signatures and inappropriate content.
Your 'joke' post above infringes on at least 2 of those so you can be the test dummy...if the police come, let me know.
