Got Coopers Celebration Ale

had a drop last night and its been 12 months since I last had one, but I certainly don't remember the bitterness of the hops last time round. still a thoroughly enjoyable bevvy and probably the best coopers bevvy I have had.


ive also picked up 2 bottles of Coopers Artisan Reserve to try out over the weekend also

Celebration ale is easily the best coopers beer. Love it.

Artisan reserve is probably the worst, even including coopers clear. Just don't think the trademark coopers hop profile suits a pilsner style, they have never made a good one.

I will say their lager has improved a lot recently. Worth checking that out again. Brewer said it was because they now brew carlsberg there, it had helped their own lager a lot.

Nah I wouldn't buy 2 cartons without a taste test

I didnt see any of the grolsch swing tops in carton, nevermind was just thinking of it at the time to reuse bottles for Homebrew.

Lagers can be quite nice if done correctly
