The little I've heard about Outback Steakhouse, it has nothing to do with
Austraya mate...

Ha! Probably the biggest contribution to wine from Austraya, is the "Goon
Bag", being the guts out of cask wine.. chuckle.  Not much of a wine drinker
either aside from the odd red occasionally. Finding a wine I enjoy is rather
hard work. There are some wines out of WA that are meant to be flash, and we
grow almost every grape variety there is, but some of our vin ordinaire is
meant to punch above its weight.

 Ad> What's something more "Australian" that you do consume?

To pop out of left field, there's always Bundaberg Ginger Beer, its a brewed
softdrink.. no alcohol.. cold one on a hot day... hmmm also seens to work
with some flavours of asian food.

In the past, I've tended to prefer spirits but I can't say we have anything
much exciting there. We do some mead thats worth trying, I tend to prefer the
spiced brew.  And if you've really got the cold day and a good book, the odd
port can be pretty spiffy too.
