Commercial Description:
Coopers Sparkling Ale is brewed naturally by the centuries-old top fermentation method just as it was in the beginning by Thomas Cooper. This beer displays a solid head and a distinctive, full-bodied flavour enhanced by a soft, fruity character and the sediment which gives it a cloudy appearance.

Certainly better than the pale ale, but again not really distinguishable and too much carbonation

From bottle. Crisp but slightly metallic aroma. Cloudy appearance with a thin head. Good carb. Smooth texture, slight hint of fruits. Decent ale.

Pretty good. I got it at Outback Steakhouse because I knew that the Fosters was dissapointing. Pours a Honey colour with a white head and has a somewhat fruity flavor. It contains sediment that will sink to the bottom. I drank this out of a Shaker.

A strawberry-blond pour with a huge cloudy yeast contingency.... very grainy, as in sand suspended in the liquid. The initial pillowy head diminishes to a ring with spotty lace. Sour grains to the nose, with light citrus and an earthen hop. Flavors are somewhat pale and subdued, light citrus mixing with biscuit notes. The finish is earthen hops, lightly peppering the back palate. The mouthfeel has substance, but doesn’t feel bold on the palate. Weird integration. Unfortunately, I’m also picking up a weird aftertaste.... really weird, like body odor sweat meets Fuggles hops. Complex enough, I guess, but just not linear and congruent.

Pours hazy dark golden with a lacy white head, usually shows some brown yeasty chunks too. Aroma of citrus, sweet malt and apricot. Medium body, quite balanced with some metallic bitterness and stonefruit flavours, as well as some strong malty notes. Can sometimes become a little cloying after a 6pack or so. Long fruity finish.

Pours a nice amber color into the glass with a small white head. I was really pleasantly surprised by this beer. The aroma is nice and spicy and the flavor is much the same with some yeasty deliciousness. This beer is very refreshing and I would definitely buy it again!

Pours a hazy golden color with a small, tight white head. Visible sediment. Subtle, biscuity malt aroma. Flavor is slightly sour malt with a dry finish. A bit better than the pale, perhaps.
