Our much loved Sparkling Ale is a bold and distinctive beer with a perfect balance of malt, hops and fruity characteristics. One of the things that give our ales that unique Coopers flavour and cloudy appearance is a process called natural conditioning. To achieve this, we add a small amount of live yeast to our beer just before packaging. This causes a secondary fermentation in the bottle or can, which carbonates the beer and eliminates the need for any preservatives or additives.

I've had this many times in the past, now I get to review it.
The bottle has a best after date. Sept 1, 2009.
I've always loved the name of the brew as compared to what it looks like when you pour it in a glass. Sparkling? It's a cloudy orange yellow. Small head of foam with some good lacing.
I note some citrus and a strongish smell of malt. Just like I remember.
Taste wise, it brings the lemony citrus hops and brings a solid malt background though it's not as sweet as in the smell. Could be a good thing. Also has some fruity tones I can't stick solely on the lemon I'm tasting. A nice plus.
A nice medium or at least close to medium body with a little less carbonation than a few of their other offerings...definitely an improvement in the mouth feel department.
Finally, I could drink copious quantities of this sparkling ale. Lots of good flavours and not a high price tag when it comes to the abv. Just generally, very enjoyable.

Bottle: Poured a golden color with a medium head. Very similar to the pale ale by Cooper’s. Aroma has a sweet cereal smell. Taste is pleasant, balanced. Like the pale ale it is a good thirst quencher.

wasnt very impressed with this. i know this is bottle fermented, but i had big CHUNKS in the beer. maybe it went bad? there was next to no aroma. Flavour was very very bitter, but not a good bitter, tasted really bad.

Pours a hazy orange with a thin white head. Aroma of grains, some hops, citrus notes. Not nearly as tasty as the Belgian blondes, but better than most lagers.

Second round for this beer, a solid brewery and this beer is classical, best before in 2023. First beer yesterday coming back from a vide grenier. A kind of keller beer with American influence, malty, a bit buttery, creamy, smooth, fruity, bitter. 21.04.24

Аромат хмелевой по большей части, но при этом умеренный, приобладают цитрусовые нотки, немного трявяные и сухие составляющие. Цвет весьма мутный, пенка средняя. Вкус питкий, свяжий, слегка бодряжий с очень сухим финалом. Во вкусе хмель, цитрусы, немного ягод. При глотке сухость и травянистость. Послевкусие с корочкой от цитрусов. В целом приятное пиво.
