Shamus O'Sean Posted April 10, 2021 Share Posted April 10, 2021 Pirate Life Brewing - IPA Danky pine aroma. Strong malty flavour. High danky bitterness. Underlying fruitiness. Poles apart from the Colonial Sour. Still a great IPA. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think that was the first time for the sour. Had their Pale Ale and IPA. Like them both. Didn't they used to have the ring pull where the whole top of the can came off? Not any more. Loss of a novelty. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I only had my first and only not that long ago think was the pale ale not sure about ring pull. Thought that was back in 70s before I was born Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I recall reading something about them being banned in some States. The thought was that by having a removable lid it created greater waste i.e. the can gets recycled but the lid gets tossed. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Captain!! Posted April 11, 2021 Share Posted April 11, 2021 Here’s what $85 will buy ya these days. double from Heretic was amazing! two smaller saisons were pretty good. The garage project one was a little sour for my liking 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Red devil 44 Posted April 11, 2021 Share Posted April 11, 2021 Think this has been reviewed before, but here’s my take on it. BentSpoke Crankshaft IPA 5.8 % ‘First taste on the pallet, quite bitter, but then the fruity flavours come through, all round nice drop this. ‘Doesn’t say what hops are in it. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah it was really good. best beer I’ve had this year was Make America Juicy Again. I’m not a hazy man but that was absolutely Devine. So drinkable it was scary Hairy 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hairy Posted April 22, 2021 Share Posted April 22, 2021 It’s OK. I’m not a big fan of the Coopers yeast in hoppy beers, there’s something about it that doesn’t quite mesh. I will still drink it though. 1 1 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Classic Brewing Co Posted April 23, 2021 Share Posted April 23, 2021 I picked a six pack of this Lager from Holland at BWS, it was reduced to $10.00, I don't know why I could drink it all the time, pity they are only 330ml. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pale Man Posted April 24, 2021 Share Posted April 24, 2021 Unfortunately I spent 20 bucks on 4 of these. Very bland and bitter. The description on the can don't match the Beer I'm afraid, the hops just aren't coming through. Coopers you should just stick to your Stout, Sparkling and Pale Ales in my opinion. 1 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well @Pale Man so far you guys have put me off buying any of these, I haven't heard of any good reviews yet. So thanks for saving me $20. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I might be spoilt, having a glass of Hoppys all grain IPA the other night is chalk and cheese to this. I'm not sure what market is targeted here, but i'd much rather a Sparkling Ale.

Well I understand Hoppy's would streak ahead of it, but I am with you the 3 Coopers products you mentioned earlier are excellent. It to me is like Nobby's they make great Peanuts, but crap Jerky. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pale Man Posted April 24, 2021 Share Posted April 24, 2021 I'm a massive fan of Coopers staple beers. I dote over the stout and sparkling. I'm just not sure what direction they're heading with these limited edition releases. Thats just me, someone out there would love it. But i reckon i can be a reliable critic. I've been drinking and brewing Coopers for over 30 years. I sound like an old man yelling at a cloud, and telling the neighbours to get off my lawn. But i love my lawn. 1 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

STOUT, PALE ALE, SPARKLING ALE from Coopers are pretty much anybody would need for a lifetime of drinking, but of course there are a lot of others we have tried & like, but this new trend to bloody 4 x packs of overpriced yuppy beer is crap. Now I sound like an old man yelling & I haven't got any lawn, only pavers ! 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
