Who is the smartest bloke in the world

I reckon it is whoever owns Fosters.

They make sh!t beer and sell it to the Poms at high prices. That was a given....
But now I see they also import Corona, according to the back of my bevvy I have in my hand.
So they make Fosters (crap) and sell it to the poms, but also import spic p!ss (also crap) worth 50c a bottle and sell it to Aussies at inflated prices.

Now could anyone be smarter?

spics is not a nice term, i think they prefer the name wetback

Fosters is crap..

But the fosters sold in the UK is not the same as the stuff they sell here.

The Fosters in the UK is a lager, albeit a cheap and natsy one.

Thought this might be of interest considering Mark's observation of Foster's intelligence! Have hi-lighted the best bit.

BREWING giant Foster's is sheepishly reversing a marketing brain snap in Australia that tried charging the same price for less beer in a smaller "European-style" stubbie.

Foster's infuriated drinkers in March last year by downsizing four of its 375ml Cascade range of stubbies by 45ml to a "sleeker'' 330ml bottle without changing the retail price.

Outraged drinkers quickly labelled it a rip-off, turning their backs on the brand as a groundswell of protest erupted, spawning several website campaigns against the brewer.

Foster's spokeswoman Felicity Watson said sales of the nationally distributed flagship Cascade Premium Lager nosedived by 33 per cent after the Euro folly. Emotions ran high, she said.

"At the time that the millilitres dropped the wholesale price remained the same, and so did the recommended retail price,'' Ms Watson said.

Foster's never intended to rip off its customers or make them unhappy by giving them less beer for the same money, she said.

"We made some changes to Cascade and we acknowledge we made the wrong changes and we acknowledge that we got it wrong and now we are bringing back the 375ml,'' she said.

"It was the wrong thing to do and we totally admit that and we are copping it on the chin.''

Cascade Blonde and Cascade Stout and Pale Ale are also all due to be resized to 375ml later this year. Fosters first announced its Cascade size reversal, of the predominantly Tasmanian-sold Pale Ale, in October last year.

Some retailers have reported a 50 per cent drop in sales of the beer.

Ms Watson said Foster's remained hopeful spurned drinkers would return to the brand after the brewer promised to change its ways. "We'd love them them back and we hope with the changes we've made that they will come back,'' she said.

I didn't know that either.... I have not seen Fosters in any shop for as long as I can remember so I assumed it was the same stuff all round.

so much effort for a drink.
the smart bloke was the one who just put WATER in a small bottle .
didnt that take off!
drill a hole into a hillside, call it a spring, bottle and sell.

I read an article in the West Australian that a Corona shipment was tested for urine content and came out with a positive result at 17% nows that's overinflated booze. One wonders though if they do that test on Emu Export.

Yeah but water just goes 'round n 'round anyway.
Out of a glass of water, some of it was at some stage (1000yrs ago?) urine, or blood or in somebody's poo or sprog or.....
