Australia's favourite full strength beer, Victoria Bitter or VB as it is fondly known, has a tradition of rewarding hard work and hard play, dating back to the 1890s. VB is a full flavoured brew, less malty in character and slightly darker than CUB's traditional lagers. A gentle fruitiness in the aroma complements the sweet malt on the mid-palate balancing perfectly with a robust, hop bitterness.
