Swell, as if the Yobbo's that drink it now aren't silly enough, now there upping the ABV! Doesn't bother me at all as I ..... well, you know. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Malter White Posted March 5, 2023 Share Posted March 5, 2023 (edited) Currently a slab of 4.9% sells for around $50 and a block is $60. I wonder what a 6% version will sell for or will it sell at all? Something tells me 16 packs might become the standard quantity.

Probably right, I heard 250ml cans sold in 4 packs. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If Coopers XPA which is 5.2 %ABV a slab of 24 is $63.00, I reckon it will be at least $75.00 but that's only a guess. As you say, it's becoming common place to find beer packed in smaller quantities. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

With VB always being the "hard earned thirst needs a big cold beer" brand, I wonder who they are targeting with 250ml 4 packs? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pale Man Posted March 5, 2023 Share Posted March 5, 2023 It'll be a novelty for a while then disappear off the market. At that price cant see it selling well. Having said that, I'll give it a crack!!! 4 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
