| Victoria Bitter, or VB, as it is commonly called, has the highest market share of all beer sold in Australia. Victoria Bitter is brewed by Carlton & United Beverages, a subsidiary of Foster's Group. It is available in New Zealand, the UK, and some European countries. The beer dates back to Victoria Brewery founder Thomas Aitken but gained wide popularity in the mid 1960s with an innovative television advertising campaign featuring the orchestral score from the film The Magnificent Seven. VB has acquired a number of nicknames, ranging from the abbreviated "Vic Bitter", polite "Very Best", "Vitamin B" and "Victory Beer". People who dislike the beer may refer to it as "Vomit Beer", "Vaginal Backwash", or "Visitors Beer". |
