| 2.8 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 5/10 | 3/5 | 6/10 | 3/5 | 11/20 | Jan 31, 2009 Bottle. Pours a highly carbonated yellow with a one finger white head. The nose is sweet malt and grassy hops. Taste is pretty much the same with some peppery pilsneresque qualities in the finish. Medium mouth feel. Refreshing brew. lb4lb (2011), Austin, Texas, USA
| 3 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 3/5 | 6/10 | 3/5 | 12/20 | Jan 22, 2009 Pours orange to amber with a light white head. Smell is mild but lightly hopped and a touch fruity. Kind of like a mix between a pale lager and pale ale. Taste is smooth, very mildly hopped and balanced, but not very richly flavored. Mild, and easy to drink and unoffensive. Medium to thin body and normal carbonation. Decent. joKing (8), New Zealand does not count | 5 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 10/10 | 5/5 | 10/10 | 5/5 | 20/20 | Jan 8, 2009 Appearance:
Pours a golden hue of orange with a slight note of mud in there - upon closer inspection, there was some peanut butter yeast as well as stunning precipitations of protein that clung to the readily disipating head of this wonderous brew.
Aroma:
Reminisent of the boot of my old Datsun - hints of old Carpet with the metallic tang of Rust. The Malt had aged spectacularily into the smoothest perceivable sweetness that coopers has been famous for. A floral hint of Black Wattle rounded out the nose of this drink.
Taste:
As with the aroma - rusty Datsun Boot was dominant along with a subtle hint of Marmite (not to be confused with Vegemite of course) with a dry sour finish.

| 3.2 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 4/5 | 6/10 | 3/5 | 13/20 | Dec 28, 2008 End of the year rate-a-thon, going down Tim. 12oz bottle at some bar in Williamsburg, dated 06-11-08. Its a lightly fruity sweet white bread type of pale ale with a very timid earthy hoppiness. Has a beautiful thick, golden color with just a bit of floaty particles. esjaygee (1578), Oak Creek, Wisconsin, USA
| 2.2 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 5/10 | 3/5 | 4/10 | 2/5 | 8/20 | Dec 21, 2008 Murky yellow, head gone in a jiffy, I think it was white. Aroma of toasted malts, mild citrus and not much else. Taste is muted, there’s not much there. Bitter, metallic, fizzy, mild sweetness and citrus and astringent. Not a pale ale by any stretch and not very good either. Capa (990), Yokosuka, Japan
| 3.4 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 3/5 | 7/10 | 3/5 | 15/20 | Nov 27, 2008 Cloudy in appearance with a firm white head. Aroma is citrus and lemon with alittle malt. Light flavor that is overpowered by the citric lemon notes. Malty finish. Inoffensive and drinkable, but nothing too special.
