Drinkers Review:
Another in my self-imposed torture of reviewing heavily marketed Aussie lagers and this was all I had left in the fridge over the weekend! This lager has always been an option when the only other thing on tap is VB or Carlton Draught, and only because the on tap version is -0.4 degrees Celsius, which means you can't even taste how bad it is! Unfortunately, it looks a lot better than it tastes, but that's not saying much. I feel a headache coming on every time I down a few cans or schooners of this brew. This beer is a macro beer, no excuses offered. It is structured to move great volume at the expense of flavor, smell and texture. It’s cheap as chips and you get what you pay for.

Beer, the goodness that froths and refreshes!
Thanks for reading.
BEER, we need more beer. But, I am not amused with the prices. We need government regulation. The price should be no higher than AUD 1,-- per bottle.
I'd be happy to pay $2 a bottle or more for a good drop, just not some of the swill being sold out there.
Yes, $2,-- is alright, after negotiation. At the moment I am paying AUD 11,50 for a pint of beer in Perth. Fuck it, that is armed robbery!
Brutal, but awesome review. :-) I was waiting for the next beer review and here it is. Loved it.

Go Coopers because it is nice beer.
There are some seriously bad beers in those ones you've reviewed, you are a sucker for punishment - you need more of Australia's great craft beer in your life.
Thanks. Yeah I do drink a lot of different ones, these are just what I had recently. More craft beer reviews to come!
