Pours a dark brown with very little head. A slight aroma of coffee and burnt wood. A lot of carbonation, the bubbles made it quite harsh on the tongue. Initial taste was a little malty, but also quite bitter. Practically no aftertaste, it was rather watery. Dissapointing, considering the high quality of all the other Cooper’s beers I’ve tried.

Oct 26, 2008 Lacklustre. Not what I was expecting, given the brilliance of Coopers Sparkling Ale. It looks good from the packaging, and not too bad in the glass, but it is in fact rather weak and watery, with a slightly too sweet flavour. OK, but can be difficult to find, and I wouldn’t go out of my way to do so.

Sep 14, 2008 Bottle. This is a very refreshing and clean tasting for brown ale, however it seems to a bit thin and watery. It doesn’t have the same burnt taste that some have, and it blends a very mild sweetness with a nice flavour and slight bitterness.

Aug 8, 2008 This black ale poured with a decent tan head. There is a thin nutty chocolate malt flavor, very watery.

Aug 4, 2008 Bottle. Milk chocolate, very malty, light sour. Small off-white creamy head, normal long lasting, black sparkling body. Light acidic and bitter taste, rather short duration. Rather light body, dry and watery texture, lively carbonation.

Jun 29, 2008 Bottle from World Market in Davis, CA. Poured a brown. Typical nutty taste, but not much flavor was there. Thin-bodied beer that left much to be desired. It wasn’t bad, but it wasn’t very good either.
