Soundawake Posted September 19, 2011 Share Posted September 19, 2011 Was on a CBD pub crawl today, called into the Coopers Alehouse at the Earl of Aberdeen. Was enjoying a schooner of Vintage when I happened to glance at their beer fridge and noticed they had stacks of Vintage in the bottle in the fridge, all at $9 a bottle! We drank a couple of '99 bottles, then the '06. will be returning to sample the rest before they run out!! http://twitpic.com/6n5imp Also popped into the Crown and Sceptre, they had aged Sparkling Ale on tap, apparently the kegs were aged for 12 months. They were delicious. Highly recommend Coopers continue on offering these kegs to pubs. http://twitpic.com/6n6n35 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
THIRSTY MATT Posted January 15, 2012 Share Posted January 15, 2012 Im jealous of the above ^ i just popped in to say im finally trying the 2011 vintage ale. In my opinion its the best one yet. the malt flavour is hotdog and its seems a little smoother n softer bitterness, and the alcohol isnt in ya face! ill buy a 6 pack now and see how it ages! good job coopers! dude, what did the 99 vintage and aged sparkling taste like???

Hairy Posted January 15, 2012 Share Posted January 15, 2012 I agree Thirsty. I think the 2011 vintage is the best I have tried. It was definitely the best at a young age anyway. I cracked one open last night and it well down very well. The only problem is allowing them to age. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The 99 vintage was more like a port than a beer!!! The aged Sparkling had the same port like flavours, but very delicious. It tasted like a COMPLETELY different beer. I highly recommend buying up some Sparkling and ageing it yourself. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
