Costs $26 in freight and the Beer is $100, so still not bad.

I was interested, but I read elsewhere last night that the Asahi we get here is now brewed in China?

Asahi is Japanese, not Chinese. You can get imported Asahi - it's usually dearer and has a little sticker somewhere saying that it's imported. The locally brewed stuff (under licence, not just Asahi) has such printed on the label somewhere.
Seems like a good deal though.

Yeah I know, however the Dan Murphy's website states that their imported product is brewed under licence in China: Asahi Super Dry | Dan Murphy's | Buy Wine, Champagne, Beer & Spirits Online
I would pay the extra for the genuine Japan brewed variety.
There is a difference!

Absolutely, I've had the brewed in Japan stuff before and it's a great beer. I'll be palming the Chinese stuff off to my old man I think..

Oops! Hope it goes down well.
I'm slightly pedantic about beer quality & origin... The 'brewed under licence" in every other country than where it is sold appear to be flourishing of late*
*(limited observations)
Ok, I'm in Only 4 cartons left at my local store today.
Will find out how much Shrek likes Japanese beer when he gets back from CMB
I love this suitcase - Shame I cant be bothered going to get 2 cases of Asahi... I believe I got the firelight 55 spinner from the Le Club Accor promo anyway, and dont really want 2 cabin size hardcases... Great pickup though.
I guess I have a prejudice against spinners - I have seen too many apparently having a mind of their own.
Anyhoo, it's 2.7kg - using 40% of the standard carry on allowance - happy to leave the Asahi and the spinner to you goo folk.
