Cooper's lager gave us no reason to go to Australia. Will it's ale fare any better?
This is a bottle conditioned beer so it is cloudy. In fact, you can see the yeast floating in it, even with a moderately careful pour. The head is thick and full. This looks like an ale you chew. The aroma is very faint. A hint of citrus. It needs more.
It's nice and sweet up front. A very nice citrus bite to it. I can taste lemon and orange. In fact it the citrus stays nicely on the tongue. The finish is a bit sweet, a bit bitter of hops, and a bit of tang from the citrus. In the middle it's smooth and slightly creamy.
After the poor showing of their lager, I am very surprised by their ale. It's pretty good. Given you've probably never heard of Cooper, you probably should.
