Piss Beer is the brand name of a beer contract-brewed by Geelong Brewing of Victoria, Australia for the Piss Beer Co. of Melbourne. Piss was introduced at the Great Britain Hotel in Richmond in 1998. While public support has been strong and the business has expanded and exported since then, major distributors continue to avoid the brand perhaps due to "piss" being slightly vulgar and also a derogatory Australian slang word for poor-quality alcoholic beverages.

Beers

Piss is an all-natural, preservative-free lager beer.

Piss Weak is their low alcohol content alternative, spawned from a joke that it'd be a great name for a light follow-up to their main Piss offering ("piss weak" being Australian slang for weak or ineffectual).
