Australians take their beer seriously and while I’m sure most of the Foster’s brands will stay in the market and not much will change we also like the idea that something is owned by Australians and that the profits stay in the country. When something with so much history and connection to Australian culture loses it way and gets taken over I, like many Australians, see that as a real shame even though I’m sure new owner SAB Miller (the worlds second largest Brewery after InterBev) will do a much better job running the business based on their success around the world.
