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.

(Can) Pours hazy amber with good white head. Pleasant aroma of candy and malt. Good mouthfeel - medium body with good bright carbonation. Sweet candy and malt start with some fruity notes is quickly displaced by some strong hoppy bitterness which is just a little harsh. Good but not great.

Pint on tap at The Elephant, Adelaide. Blacker than a stockbroker's heart. Head of crema. Caramel malt, dark chocolate nose. Solid lacing. Liquorice and grain to the fore. Dark chocolate smoothes the way, beautiful luxurious texture. Seriously good Stout, full of depth and complexity. If you find it anywhere let it warm up. But man, is it hard to find!

From a 375ml can on 19/8/2020. Pours a slightly cloudy deep golden with a medium white head. Smells pretty their other ales, and not overtly fruity as is typical for the style. Has a distinct yet subdued fruity sweetness up front, the Coopers malt in the background and a medium bitterness at the back. Medium bodied with average carbonation. Certainly not out there by any means, but a quaffable and well made beer if more Coopers than hazy in style if that makes sense. Sparkling is my most common fridge filler but this would do just as well.
