Jun 10, 2005 Updated: Jul 14, 2005Bottled (labelled Regency Draught). Pale golden, small head. A light flavoured beer with a light-medium body and a hint of bread and crystal malt. A fair amount of grassy hops make for some late bitternss. Easy drinking beer with no flaws.

Mar 12, 2004 Something Coopers should leave well alone, but having said that, it is way better than the other local West End and better than VB.
Sweet and a funny taste to begin with with a bit of bitterness and odd taste after. OK. Cheers all

Jan 1, 2004 Drinkable but that is as far as it goes. Dusty grainy malty sort of taste.Thin body and leaves you wanting less.

May 24, 2005 Rebranded as Coopers Regency Draught. Poured a hazy gold with a quick-diminishing 1cm head. Un-Cooperslike aroma. The skunkiest beer they’ve produced to date - well done, lads. Faint hints of the house fruitiness but this bottle has a peculiar musty vegetal odour that doesn’t appeal. Plenty of sweet malt upfront on the tongue with a decent shot of Pride of Ringwood bitterness. Tastes better than it smells. Especially if you enjoy a bowl of cornflakes. It’s not unspeakably bad but it’s a mystery why they bother with this sort of stuff.

Jun 25, 2004 Golden colouring with decent sized cloudy off-white head. Stale bitter aroma. Watery dry body, with a harsh bitter finish and aftertaste.

Jan 17, 2005 Amber with small but persistent head. Stale hoppy aroma and an almost immediate, long-lasting bitterness. However the actual taste is not very pleasant.

Dec 20, 2004 Lovely big white head which gradually gavfe way to thick lacing. Clear golden and flat body. Wet musty aroma. Heavily sweet flavour in that corn syrup homebrew kind of way. Nothing else woth noting.

Sep 10, 2007 This has been retired for a while, but in updating my label collection since my latest trip to Oz I found my notes on this one from 2 years ago. My notes say: "WTF? why would Coopers bother? stinky and overprocessed." In the face of the other fine ales they make, it’s no wonder this one didn’t last.
