Commercial Description:
Coopers Heritage Premium Ale is a chill-filtered clear beer. Brewed using an unusual blend of malt and unmalted grains, this beer has been created with a full-bodied palate, a golden colour and a good creamy head. The subtle malt character is balanced with a moderate level of bitterness and by late hopping in the brew kettle that adds a pleasing hop aroma. An ale yeast has been specifically selected for its desired floral and fruity characters of top fermentation, which complement this complex and well-balanced palate.

Quite floral on the nose, sweet smell but quite dry finish. a fair bit of sugary, rich maltiness. very good but hard to finish many. Quality.

light honeyed malt with POR hop aroma. light golden with light small creamy head. mostly POR taste with hints of honeyed malt. drying light bitterness that lingers dryly over a thin watery body. my least favourite of the coopers range, I wish they would stop trying to get into macro territory.

I found this beer BAD BAD BAD BAD! This is a real dissapointment from the Coopers brewery. It is as if they had a think tank that said "We need a beer that will appeal to the average Australian, lets make something that is as bad as VB & Crown Lager". There is nothing redeeming here at all, it has a sour aroma and strong bitterness from what I assume is pride of ringwood hops. This also had a fuzzy biting mouthfeel akin to VB. This is as poor and sad as Empire Lager. Problem is fat businessmen with no taste will probably crap on as to which is better, this or Cascade.

Not a bad effort for a newy..It was quite enjoyable with nothing outstanding however to discuss more about. Slightly metalic.

Scores highly for appearance, everything else about this beer pretty much sucks. Tinned spaghetti, metal and cider aroma. Slight nuttiness which I also find in VB, slight sourness and a bit of bitterness hidden in there. Actually the more I drank the more I thought of VB, but from Coopers I expect (slightly) more. Fizzy. No good.

Light malt aroma, some odd smells that don't come through until the flavour of the beer itself. Pours golden with a creamy little head. I found the flavour very odd. At first it taste like sherbert! Soda kind of mouth feel to it and a bit of dough flavour. Really odd, and ultimately disappointing brew from Coopers.

Amber gold clear under a medium small size, shortish lasting off white head. Faint stale biscuity malt aroma. Thinish low carb soda watery body. Flavourwise it reminds me of a weak and watery ginger beer. Mild bitter light grainy and biscuity malt sweet and a touch of sourdough sour. Macro brew drip tray finish. tray Characterless and a long way from their vintage brew.

Deep gold colour with fluffy head. Sweetish aroma and biscuity malt flavour which is quite weak, minor bitterness. Decidedly ordinary. I don't hate this but if this has replaced the Vintage Ale that is a crime.
