ABOUT FOSTER’S BEER:

Foster’s was created by two American brothers, William M. and Ralph R. Foster, who arrived in Melbourne from New York in 1886.^[5] The brothers began brewing Foster’s Lager in November 1888.^[1] It was made available to the public from February 1889.^[1] The product was first exported in 1901, when bottles were sent to Australian combatants in the Boer War.^[6]

In 1907, the company merged with five other brewing companies to form Carlton & United Breweries (CUB).^[5] Then only available in bottles, Foster’s Lager was considered to be CUB’s premium brand.^[5]

In 1958, steel cans were introduced.^[7] Foster’s Lager was first imported into the UK in 1971^[5] and was launched in the US in 1972.^[5]
