3.1 AROMA 6/10 APPEARANCE 2/5 TASTE 7/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 13/20
Dark brown color, very cloudy. Blackcurrant and chocolate in the aroma and flavor. Thin. Short aftertaste. Just a hint of tartness. Nice session ale.

Not as classsy as their other beers.Brown and poured flat.Reasonable but straightforward flavour but nothing that stands out.Still miles ahead of other Australian brands.
2.7 AROMA 6/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 5/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 10/20
12.7 oz bottle. Looked and smelled good, and I was hoping for an excellent brown ale, having had their excellent stout. I was disappointed. Aroma was malt and sweet chocolate. Flavor also had malt and chocolate, and nutty qualities, but not much sweetness. A little caramel present in the mix. Every sip had an metallic flavor along with musty scorched grain at the end. The lack of sweetness and the cheap metallic hops spoiled this beer for me. Its still a drinkable brew, and has some good flavors, but overall stuck at mediocre.

Another Cooper’s bought at John’s in Portland. Dark brown. Cloudiness depends on swirling of sediment, or not. Light fizzy head maintained by strong carbonation. Delicate chocolate malt aroma. Light and fizzy in the mouth. Settles down and then the chocolate flavour coats the mouth in the finish.

Bottle: Aroma had a decent rasted nut scent. Dark body with tan had. Flavor was mediun bodyed with roasty, nut and some chocolate. Had a sample of this beer couple of week ago thought the body was richer in that one. Freshness and temp of beer may make a difference in these Cooper beers.
4 AROMA 7/10 APPEARANCE 5/5 TASTE 8/10 PALATE 4/5 OVERALL 16/20
Nutty brown ale aroma. Maybe a hint of raisin and chocolate. Dark cloudy brown with small golden bits (it’s bottle conditioned). Chocolaty flavor, some malt, some hop. Tiny bubbles, but a bit thin. Finishes a bit dry, with a hint of sour, then the chocolate returns. Really pleasant, and not at all harsh like most American browns.
2.4 AROMA 3/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 5/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 10/20
Average, middle of the road beer that did nothing for me. Aroma weak, appearance average, and the flavor was okay, but nothing stood out in the taste. Really enjoyed the Cooper’s Sparkling Ale and Pale Ale, but think I’ll pass on this one.

nutty chocolate aroma. a dry roasty brown ale. the roasted barley really shows through in the flavor. it also has a lot of pale qualities. not very sweet at all. interesting beer. brown color with a small off white head.
