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.

Ungstrup (23960) - Oamaru, NEW ZEALAND - AUG 8, 2003
An unclear orange beer with a small disappearing head. The aroma is faintly malty. The flavor is fresh, malty and feels sparkling on the tongue. Not a special beer - but maybe my hopes were too high after reading Michael Jacksons recommendation.

Papsoe (22987) - Frederiksberg, DENMARK - MAY 14, 2005
UPDATED: JUN 16, 2005 (Bottle 37,5 cl) Used to be my favourite beer in Oz in 1988. Bill from La Fayette, CA used to call it a "No shit beer" because of the "no additives" and the bottle-sediment, which was unusual at the time. Well, a lot of beer has run through the system since then. Years later it doesn’t really live up to the sweet memories. Bronze-coloured and hazy, if you pour the sediment too it turns greyish brown. Dry, quaffable, only light hoppiness and a very subdued aroma. 181104

Bottled. Hazy orange colour, small white head. Whaty and yeasty aroma with some sweet sugary hints. Sweet sugar and malt in flavour along with hints of yeast and wheat. Pleasant palate.

omhper (15956) - Stockholm, SWEDEN - JUN 1, 2002
Amber coloured and really cloudy. Pear aroma. Nicely malty, fruity with sparkling mouthfeel. A great, unusual, complex but still refreshing ale.

MiP (11783) - Sønderborg, DENMARK - SEP 11, 2008
Bottle, 5.8%. Cloudy orange colour. Small white head. Lemony aroma. The flavour is quite bready, tastes a bit old, but is not past BB date. The flavour is also citric and quite malty.
