The recipe hasn't changed in the hundred or so years they've been produced. XXXX, Swan bitter, West End, Cascade, Tooheys etc are all generic mass production beers 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah a fair point on Coopers. They were probably the first craft beer company who made it mainstream. I classify it as craft beer as its family owned and taste hasn't changed but its regular in both Southern and Eastern Australia now Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Apparently the top of the barrels is the crown larger because it comes from the "crown" of the barrel whereas VB is the "Very Bottom" 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
