World Cup of Beer

Italy may have won the World Cup of Football - but Australians can be proud of winning an even more significant World Cup - the World Cup of Beer.

The Beer World Cup consisted of a representative beer from each of the 32 World Cup nations. Judges awarded marks for taste, appearance, balance and drinkability. And in a strange coincidence, Australia battled Italy in the final - a rematch of the second round game in real World Cup. This time around however, Australia came out on top. Which really isn't surprising. Because when it comes to anything super-manly -- like sports that require a complete disregard for physical safety, Russell Crowe, or beer -- Australians usually win.

And since we're on the topic of Australians, I just wanted to say that Kylie Minogue is hot.
