    Omg. Sparkling ale. Strong and delicious! Drink with caution. It's so bloody terrific

    Coopers built their own gas turbine power station to run their brewery, and they export excess electricity into the SA power grid
    So you can get pissed and save the planet at the same time

      I think that's more a reflection of SA's power prices than anything else :|

      • cornbeef on 15/06/2016 - 11:18

        that and the lack of reliability of the SA power grid

    Tried on the Dunkel - got this error message (any suggestions?)

    Promotion Code GDOPL98T has not been applied - order does not qualify

    • tonester on 14/06/2016 - 22:22

      have you logged in / registered?

      • locutus_of_bris on 14/06/2016 - 22:25

        Thanks - all fixed :)

        Now to find a store that has stock of the Dunkel

        • tonester on 14/06/2016 - 22:39

          dunkel is in-store only, no click+collect :(

        • DavRo on 14/06/2016 - 22:51

          Hasn't worked for me. Logged in. No go.

          Not working for me either.

        • locutus_of_bris on 15/06/2016 - 11:18

          @tonester: Another challenge is that after calling them and told there is stock in Port Melbourne it still won't let me order online (as you advised). But they did confirm that my local stores have no stock.
          So it seems I need to call to check each stores availability as the online system doesn't seem to advise stock levels whether they have it or not, regardless of if I can order it online (Port Melbourne shows no stock when trying to order still - would be handy if it said In Store Only with stock available).

          50km trip for a 12 pack of great beer - hmmmmm (still tempting)

        • tonester on 15/06/2016 - 13:12

          @locutus_of_bris:

          if you called port melbourne and there was stock, then couldn't they be put on hold for you?

          else enter postcode to choose your local store for availability details

          note: apparently i bought balwyn's last bottles of dunkel :)

        • locutus_of_bris on 16/06/2016 - 15:42

          @tonester: I called the national number and they searched for me, but their searches didn't line up with what it showed me as being available.

          If I'm heading that way I'll ring ahead and get them to keep it aside yes :)

  • freemoneyhunter on 14/06/2016 - 22:21

    It is not a bad beer, but I wouldn't buy it, I bought a 6p awhile ago, I thought it lacked flavour, I am used to beer with hop bitter. You need to carefully pour it into a glass and not drink out of the bottle because of the sediment even though it is heat treated and the yeast should be dead it causes at least in my case some unease. Certainly it is a very good price for it.

      flavour doesn't just mean hops, hops don't necessarily give complexity

      You need to carefully pour it into a glass and not drink out of the bottle because of the sediment even though it is heat treated and the yeast should be dead it causes at least in my case some unease.

      always invert (or roll if you must) - some of the best beers are bottle-conditioned :)

        Officially you 'gently rock' the bottle side to side as stated on coopers webpage for sparkling, PA you 'gently roll'.

        Gawd I hate when I buy a Coopers & the person serving stirs up the yeast. It's just some marketing wankery like sticking lime/lemon wedges in Corona. Yeast is an unpleasant tasting laxative. which is why they use strains which cake together at the bottom, so it seperates from the beer.

        Grrrrr

        • 00 on 15/06/2016 - 11:11

          marketing wankery?

          lime is an essential addition for Corona because otherwise it would be completely tasteless!

    • kzrocky on 14/06/2016 - 22:59

      You have to drink the yeast its not going to cause you unease (well not the majority) Millions of germans arent this time wrong. :)
      Roll the bottle to extract the extra vitamins B2,

      Coopers are bottle fermented, it is supposed to have sediment and they let you know how to 'prep' the bottle before drinking on each relevant beer's page on their website.
      Bottle fermentation is also why they have a 'best after' date not a 'best before'.

    • plastic spoon on 14/06/2016 - 23:18
      +2

      Coopers bottle condition their beer, they don't pasteurise. This means you get live yeast in the bottle. In fact you can use it in your home brew if you treat it right. Don't feel uneasy about drinking live yeast. Most of the modern micro breweries don't pasteurise. They may however filter or fin their brew to remove the yeast and particulate proteins so it looks clear.

      It's bloody marvellous having such a great choice of hop driven styles available now but it's nice to occasionally go back to the classics. The sparkling ale has loads of hop bitterness, it's just not a modern dry hopped IPA/APA.

      • sigh on 14/06/2016 - 23:24
        +1

        Knew there was a better term for it, bottle conditioning is the right one, just couldn't think of it.
        I'm yet to dabble in home brew, on the to do list, too much to learn!

        • plastic spoon on 14/06/2016 - 23:25
          +2

          Oh man, you don't want to start home brewing. You'll put on kilos and your liver will get all fatty. It's a deliciously terrible thing to do to yourself :)

      • jason07 on 15/06/2016 - 03:05

        Their conditioning strains aren't the same as their primary fermentation strains, so culturing from the bottle won't get quite the same results unfortunately

        • anzacpaul on 15/06/2016 - 12:48

          Coopers actually recommend in some of their homebrew recipes that you use the yeast from their bottles, so you most certainly can use it to good effect.

  • cornbeef on 14/06/2016 - 22:44

    Very nice post indeed! Looks like I will have to put off my plan to cut back on spending money on booze.

    Have to laugh at their websites side-banner advertising when I clicked on the Dunkel. "Like this? Try this" and points to Becks and Heineken. Even if they were to ignore the different qualitative realm in which those beers exist surely they realise they at extreme ends of the types of tastes involved. Baffling.

    Can anyone tell me if the voucher is generic? I have registered previously and I note it says something about only being able to use for your first online order and within 14 days.

    • tonester on 15/06/2016 - 02:19

      it's generic for your 1st online order :)

  • tired faith on 14/06/2016 - 23:47

    Ferran Adrià's Inedit beer isn't the gastronomic world first it's claimed to be, but it is a very rare thing - a good beer from Spain.

    Hmm.. what does this say about Spanish beer in general?

  • Poimandres on 15/06/2016 - 11:56

    I'm usually a beer man, but it's worth looking at other options with this voucher.
