Hammer 'n' Tongs Draught

Twist a cap off this Australian (Boags) beer and pour it into a glass too find a very clear, almost dark-gold body with quite a good looking white, thick and creamy head. After a minute or so, the carbonation quickly fades.
Stick your nose in the glass and you won't really pick up anything except maybe a slight wet-cardboard aroma.
Taking a large gulp of this beer produces remnants of warm dam water, not to mention zero bitterness with a lackluster and flabby malt aftertaste.

To be drinking this beer you must be suffering from extreme poverty, as it is probably the most affordable product on the market. Even the severely punished tongue of an alcoholic Vietnam war veteran would reject this poor attempt at "beer". It comes to no surprise that Boags do not defame themselves by putting their name on a bottle of Hammer 'n' Tongs. There is no culinary 'significant other' to this beverage. So the only thing left to match this beer with would be a completely different beer; partly to erase any memory of this terrible time in your life but mainly to restore your faith in the world. There is no reason why anyone should be subjected to this bottled form of bedevilment.
