Commercial Description:
Before mid 2004 known as Coopers New Light. Production ended in October 2005.

Coopers New Light combines the malt character of the best South Australian barley with a judicious blend of subtle hop flavour to provide a crisp, refreshing beer with a robust malty flavour,

Amber gold, thin head, no real aroma, thin thin thin palate. Just another light beer.

Bottled, labelled Regency Light. Golden colour, near no head. Light boided and lightly bready with some grassy hops. It’s somewhat thin with a hint of metal, thankfully interrupted by a light spicy bitterness.

This is now sold under the brand name "Regency Light" with the same abv. Poured a cloudy gold colour with a fast-diminishing 0.5cm head but plenty of visible carbonation. The distinctive house yeast aroma is present but subdued. Pineapple notes, a dab of butter and a hint of hop make it smell a lot more inviting than most lights. But tastewise it’s a crashing disappointment. Dominant flavour is wet cardboardy malt and... er, that’s about it, but for a bit of bitterness in the finish. It’s as thin and unsatisfying as any other light beer. For an extra 0.6% abv, you can drink the Mild, which at least has some genuine Coopers character. This smells better than the average light but that’s about it.

Dull looking pale golden body with short lasting head. Aroma of hops. Taste is there if you look for it, bland and flat malt taste. Coopers make a couple good beers but it seems that they make a couple of shockers as well. I was forced to give this a couple extra points only cos I have given worse beers a better rating.

Amber colour with a lightly hoppy aroma. However it is almost completely devoid of taste. There is only the merest hint of vinigar in the aftertaste. Another waste of time.
