COMMERCIAL DESCRIPTION
Coopers Heritage Premium Ale is a chill-filtered clear beer. Brewed using an unusual blend of malt and unmalted grains, this beer has been created with a full-bodied palate, a golden colour and a good creamy head. The subtle malt character is balanced with a moderate level of bitterness and by late hopping in the brew kettle that adds a pleasing hop aroma. An ale yeast has been specifically selected for its desired floral and fruity characters of top fermentation, which complement this complex and well-balanced palate.

Oakes (10009) - Gibsons, British Columbia, CANADA - AUG 2, 2005

Golden colour. Lightly honeyish, bready malt aroma. Somewhat bland, honeyish and a little biscuity. Seems well-enough-made but lacks guts.

DuffMan (4242) - the land of bitumen, beef & beer, Alberta, CANADA - JUL 15, 2005

Dark gold, average head, little lace. Solid malt aromas, a little hoppy, a little metallic. Solid malt palate, mild floral notes, crisp dry finish with some cardboard lingering after. I found this really drinkable and refreshing.

bridge (659) - Sydney, AUSTRALIA - JUN 28, 2005

Bottled. Poured an average head that didn’t last very long, with minimal lacing down the sides. At typical Australian beer temperature this hasn’t got a lot of aroma, but brief notes of hops. Flavour follows this line as well and not a lot of finish, so not much to rave about.

omhper (15600) - Stockholm, SWEDEN - JUN 10, 2005

UPDATED: JUL 14, 2005 Bottled. Clear bronze colour, brief head. Aroma of crystal malt with light notes of yeast and grassy hops. Lovely bready malt flavour, similar to their sparkling ale, but the mouthfeel is less... sparkling. The finish is grassy asd has some bitterness. I like this easy going ale.

oh6gdx (15510) - Vasa, FINLAND - JUN 4, 2005

Bottled. Hazy yellow colour, small foamy head. Caramel and alcohol in aroma. Malty flavour with hints of hops, hay and butter. Also some vegetably notes are present. Dry finish.

sayravai (4526) - Helsinki, FINLAND - JUN 2, 2005

(Bottled@Oliver Twist, Stockholm) Somewhat hazy golden color with small head. Sourish and earthy, quite plain aroma. Pretty sour and acidic, slightly buttery and moderately malty flavor. Light to medium-bodied, quite refreshing palate. Feels like keller/landbier.

gulf690 (21) - AUSTRALIA - APR 1, 2005

I expected something, but got nothing from this. Looked like a weak bubbled (amber) water in the glass and wouldn’t hold a head. Nose was dull and had a cardboard tone to it. Very thin on the palate and absolutely no follow through. Bottle was in date, but I suspect it had been treated poorly (or Coopers got it really wrong)

highlandlad (1319) - Blue Mountains, AUSTRALIA - MAR 10, 2005

Feels like another attempt to break into the wallets of those who refuse to pay less than $6 for a premium beer in a city pub on Friday nights. Intense gold colour (clear because it’s filtered). 1cm white head that hung around and left a little lace. Typical Coopers nose but much more muted. Some cardboardy malt and pear characters. Creamy mouthfeel but fairly thin-bodied. More cardboard malt, soapy notes and a very subdued finish. God, it’s dull. (Bottle, best before 15/8/05)
