375 mL bottles mostly and 375 mL cans is some places. It is also available as part of the TapKing range of beers for the refrigerator tap.
Drinkers Review:
This is Australia's best macro-lager, because it's flavoursome, refreshing, and a good session beer. It looks good, has a light gold colour, has good head retention, it's very well carbonated (but not too much) and has different flavours in different areas of the mouth. It's not the best Australian beer but it's definitely a nice beer from an awesome brewery. It taste's better in all areas than its rival Cascade Premium Lager and I would recommend this beer to anyone looking for an full strength Australian Premium Beer to partake in.
