Coopers Vintage Ale ‘09 Released
Written on 30 July 2009
Get ready for another powerhouse
Coopers Extra Strong Vintage Ale is back for another year and you better believe this vintage is another cracker.. not skipping on power or flavour.
The 2009 Vintage Ale was created using four different kinds of hops for bittering and aroma and the finished product is nothing short of outstanding. Here’s a snapshot of Coopers’ tasting notes…
“A portion of the best Australian malted barley and crystal malt from the 2008 crop was reserved and used in this beer, giving a strong and robust aroma preceding a smooth and delicate palate that lingers long enough to entice the consumer to savour more.”
According to Chief Brewer Dr Tim Cooper, with correct cellaring the 2009 Vintage Ale will improve in flavour for up to 18 months and, like previous vintages, go on to replace bitterness with caramel and toffee flavours… almost sounds worth the wait.
Look out for Coopers Extra Strong Vintage Ale in the Rubber Stamp section of your local Drinx store this month… and they now come in packs of 12 as well as 24.
