Correction,, only the yeast is imported, but it is almost American although brewed in 8 countries, none of them USA
Melbourne’s famous beer, Foster’s Lager was produced by two Americans!
"One fine day in 1887, two yanks of Irish extraction William M. Foster and his brother Ralph R. Foster stepped off a boat in Melbourne. They had sailed from New York, USA with the dream of starting a successful brewery on the other side of the world. They set up the Fosters Brewing Company on Rokeby Street in Collingwood. The first Fosters was brewed in 1888."
