    Of course these guys aren’t going to rate Toohey’s New coz it doesn’t taste like honey or a fruit orchard.

    One of the worst beers I have ever tasted. Without it’s advertising, this beer would be nothing.

    I prefer their Old, but this tastes good at the local out of its ’super cold’ tap. Way better than the other 5 yellow beers they have on tap.

    Toohey’s New is a typical factory beer, it tastes better as the carton empties. I consume it only through politeness to the host.
