Commercial Description:
The flavour lies somewhere between our Sparkling Ale and Stout but the texture and appearance is less syrupy and cleaner. Coopers Dark Ale is top fermented in the traditional manner. A combination of dark and medium-roasted malt produces this rich, flavoursome brew that's especially satisfying in nippy weather.

Pours dark with a thin fizzy head. Aroma of molasses, coffee, and roasted malts. Taste follows aroma. Balanced finish, easy to drink.

Bottle. Pours cloudy brown with serious floaties and a thin whitish head. The aroma is slight molasses, sour berries, wood, mild yeastiness. The flavor is sourdough and juniper (!?); little bit of molasses syrup, cedar, white raisins, sweet waffle-like aftertaste.

Pours dark with very little head that disappears right away. Little to no aromas but there is a hint of coffe and malt. When you take your first sip, don’t blink, you might miss the flavor. A quick hint of coffee hits the palate and then nothing. The thinness disapates quickly in your mouth with a dry finish and nothing. Almost like you didn’t drink anything. Definately not a fan.

Pours dark brown with a smooth tan head. Roasty chocolate aroma with a bit of sticky molasses character. Nice beer that seems more of a porter.

Bottle. Dark brown colour, good offwhite head. Burnt and sweet malts aroma. Flavours are quite sweet with modest coffee notes. Soft.Does not go down in the history books.

Sweet aroma, but bland taste. develops into a burnt finish, but otherwise not noteworthy. easy to drink, but that’s all.

Pours to a watery-brown color with lots-o-sediment. Smells, good with sweet carmel notes. Mouthfeel is thin; tastes like you’d expect dark Budwieser to taste. Not much there.
