There's a general perception amongst the ex-pats here in Australia that we get worse hangovers from Aussie beer than we do from European stuff. Does anyone have any information that might shed some light on why we seem to get bands of demented dwarves playing football in our heads the morning after two or three beers?

Might it be that, as you have been instructing the admiring world for decades, that "Aussie" beer that much more powerful than our sissy drinks from the Northern Hemisphere? No?

It's The Formaldehyde(R).
Maybe no, maybe yes. I do know that if you pour Aussie beer down the drain, it swirls backwards. The beer, I mean. Not the drain.
But of course. The beer swirls backward, so the drain quite clearly is swirling forward. Especially after a few too many Aussie lagers.
BS Formaldehyde cannot exist in beer as it reacts rapidly and irrevesibly with the poly phenols from malt and hops.
