Which ones have travelled half the world? Fosters is brewed by Courage, Red Stripe is brewed in Bedford, XXXX again brewed locally by inBev. Becks is one of the few still brewed where it should be. Didn't they move Newcastle Brown brewing out of Newcastle recently? http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Newcastle_Brown Ah yes, in Aug 2005 it was moved to Gateshead.
