Commercial Description:
Bottle & keg; Unfiltered.
Ingredients: Water, Barley, Hops, Yeast.
"With its fruity character, and robust flavour, Coopers Pale Ale is perfect for every occasion. Naturally fermented in the 'Burton-on-Trent' style, a secondary fermentation creates the trademark sediment that gives 'Pale' its fine cloudy appearance. This cloudy residue can be stirred through the beer by tipping or rolling the bottle before drinking."

Poured a pale gold with a fairly small, loose head. Good whiff of hops with some grass and a biscuity hint. Biscuity flavour with hop bite and a slightly orangey hint. A fairly long-lasting crisp, dry finish. Quite difficult to pour without getting a glass full of sediment - so probably best to make it the first of the night!

12.7oz bottle, best before 11.06.06. Served out of the beer fridge @ 40° in a pint glass. I poured it slowly because I was trying to avoid the sediment in the beer and I ended up with most all the sediment and a beer with no head. Yellow orange color and an assload of floaties, just tons all throughout the beer and settled on the bottom of the glass. Aroma is malty, with a slight citrusy, yeasty smell. The flavor is malty, with no real hop flavor to speak of. The finish is a bit perfumy, then almost like flour. The mouthfeel is decent. Overall, not very good. This is very overpriced, Im glad I got it in a mix a six.

Light to no aroma rises from this murky muddy looking beer. I know that it is bottle fermented but the resulting color is not attractive. Nice fruity, yeasty flavor and a mild malt backbone and crisp finish. Easy to drink but not worth the price tag ($9/ 6pk!).

This poured a nice golden color with a thin head. The aroma seemed to show some honey and fruit scents. The taste however, was more like that of a wheat beer and not very hoppy. Not a disappointment of a beer but not a regular on my bar.

This beer didn’t look like I expected it to. It poured more like a wheat beer than a pale ale. I always compare to my favorite, Sierra Nevada and it was very different. The smell wasn’t very impressive at all. The taste was decent, but very fleeting. A second on the lips, and that’s about it. It was a bit bubbly on the tongue, but the taste just didn’t do it for me.

Poured a cloudy yellow with a practically no head. I pretty much smell old socks...musty. Maybe it’s just the smell coming through when I taste, but i get a musty taste. I can barely get a hint of a floral, lemonish taste. Finish is pretty much the same as the taste. No surprises. I don’t think I’ll drink this again.

Cloudy with sediment in the bottled variety. A bit sweet and fruity and extremely easy to drink on a hot day. One of my favourites.
