 Victoria Bitter
Victoria Bitter or more commonly known as VB is the only mainstream beer to successfully penetrate across Australia’s culturally entrenched state beer obsession.
The name change from Victoria Bitter was necessary as the beer is a lager and not a true bitter in the technical sense (there is little distinction between a bitter and a lager in Australia and the names are often used interchangeably).
It is interesting to note that the beer is little known outside of Australia where beers such as Fosters and XXXX carry the Australian flag.

 Talk:XXXX - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Apologies, I'd only come across the lager version, and as Victoria Bitter really isn't bitter (or maybe you know better?), I thought it was another bit of confusion over terminology.
Given that every type of XXXX (except for the locally consumed XXXX Bitter) is definitely a lager, and that they all taste fairly similair even if their strength vary, I'd be willing to concede that XXXX Bitter is indeed a Lager and that the name is just a historical anomaly.
The example of VB not really being a bitter is a parallel example.
