A tea round we can get behind (Picture: Victoria Bitter)

We’ve all been there – after a long stressful day, it hits mid afternoon and you are craving a nice ice cold pint.

But it’s not really a good idea to just crack open a beer at your desk.

Now you can get that beer taste any time in your trusty office mug with these teabags.

It’s completely non-alcoholic so fine to drink whatever the time.


The tea has been created by Victoria Bitter – an Australian beer brand – ahead of The Ashes cricket series next month.

Apparently the tea tastes and smells just like their beer.

It’s made with the brand’s ‘super pride hops’ and black tea leaves to create a tasty brew that can be served with out without milk.



It is to encourage fans to ‘boycott English breakfast tea’, which ins’t necessarily a sentiment we agree with.

A beer flavoured tea does sound great though.

We know Aussies love nothing more than watching the cricket with a VB in hand,’ brand director Chris Maxwell said.

‘So when the boys are in England, they’ll be watching into the wee hours of the morning and need a cuppa.’

The teabags are available on the VB website, and they cost $10 (£5.65).

Unfortunately the teabags have sold out and even if you mange to get your hands on some, you would have to get them shipped to England.

Let’s hope your favourite local brewery picks up on the idea so you can taste your favourite beer at any time of the day.
