http://www.thisislondon.co.uk/standard-business/article-23962507-sabmiller-launch-major-takeover-bid-for-fosters.do is a bit more informative, but as always with the Evening Standard treat with caution.

I didn't realise that it's poorly regarded in Australia. I always thought it was rubbish (lager boys thought it was the dog's wotsits when it first turned up here sometime around the end of the 70s) but then I've never come across an Australian beer that isn't. I guess it's deemed to be even more rubbish than the competition.
