About
To say we're 'born to brew' may seem like a bold statement, but after dedicating over 150 years to the art of brewing, we believe it's true.

Coopers is a brewing family. Its in our blood. For six generations we've been custodians of a proud legacy that began in 1862 when Thomas Cooper brewed his first batch of ale. Our passion for brewing has kept us together and helped us through economic recessions, wars, government imposts, changing tastes, and the occasional hostile takeover bid.

Today, our unique brand of naturally conditioned ales and stouts are enjoyed around the world and we're still making these beers using the same traditional brewing methods that Thomas did. And when we say hand-made by the Cooper family', we mean it. If you visit the Brewery you'll probably bump into a Cooper who works there. While other breweries might make all sorts of claims about their 'origins' the fact is that we are Australia's oldest family owned and run brewery, and that's not changing anytime soon.

375ml bottle. Minimally milky, amber colour with small, frothy, half-way lasting, minimally lacing, white head. Sweet-ish, minimally grainy, malty aroma, hints of fudge, butterscotch. Taste is watery malty and minimally bitter, grassy hoppy, diluted hints of fudge, toffee, butterscotch. Watery texture, minimally dry palate, medium to fine, dense, mildly prickly carbonation. Watery, simple and monotonous - every item finds a spot, even if it is the hindmost place in the table of Mild Ales.

Schooner on tap at Ulmarra Hotel. Slightly cloudy amber Ale with a solid white head. Light carbonation. Fruity nose, peach, guava, hint of yeast. Refreshing, nice and bitter. Zingy. Slight touch of bubblegum then nice 'Juicyfruit' finish. Very quenching, nice one.

Sample, thanks to Graham down there! Pours gold, vague mist with a white head that recedes to a patchy splodge. Aroma of sweet butterscotch, which continues onto the palate, fairly sweet, toffee, distant orange, fair carbonation. Not quite harmonious but still flavourful. Ok.

Gedeeld door Roelzie, geprobeerd als Vintage Ale 2022. Het is een helder koperkleurig bier met een volle beige schuim. Het heeft een aroma van hop. De smaak is moutig, hoppig en zacht harsig, fruitig en licht bitter.
