Jon - Definitely Abbot Ale! Also like Ruddles County. As for beer here in Australia, Dogbolter, Hahn Premium, Fremantle Bitter(alas no more) Carlton Crown Lager.

When I was stationed in Lincolnshire with the RAF in the late 60's the local brew was Holes. Just about the worst beer I've ever tasted, with the exception of their "Castle Stout" which was nectar. Of course Courage brought them out and the only beer they dumped was the stout! Typical Courage.
