     >> Yeah, or you could drink beer instead.
     >Right, Fosters (ever been kicked by a kangaroo?)
     Kangaroo piss more like it. Let's go for top shelf instead of the urinal, try something like Carlsberg or if you want Aussie beer try Cooper's Pale Ale ;^) Stix, or Cascade.

     Hey! I was led to believe that Fosters was crap, and that the various Australian microbrews were the way to go. If that's the case, then wouldn't offering a Fosters to a visitor be an insult? Another way of saying, "Your palette^[sic] probably cannot descriminate between a quality beer and kangaroo piss, so there's no need to waste the good stuff on you. Here, have a Fosters." :)

     Hey Billy, stop drinking kangaroo piss for breakfast and wake up.

2. Used other than figuratively or idiomatically: see kangaroo,‎ piss.
