While popular in many countries, where it is often brewed under license, Foster's Lager has only moderate appeal in its home country - mainly because it is promoted overseas by advertising making use of stereotypes of Australians as unsophisticated bush-dwellers.

Foster's has also become somewhat of a cult joke in Australia as being a very poor tasting beer that was only good enough to sell to other countries.

Australians instead drink other "house beers" (that is low cost and mass produced varieties) usually depending on their state, for example XXXX, Tooheys, Swan, Emu Bitter or Victoria Bitter.
