It would be true to say Australians love there beer. There are stats Australia continually ranks within the top 5 drinking nations of the world.I rate the beer down under and no thats not my patriotic Ozzie coming out i generally think we produce some great Ales. Of course like any country we are dominated by a commercial line of beer which will be stocked at every bottle-shop and ordered at every pub but if you look a little harder and search a little wider then you will start to notice a revolution in microbreweries that are producing quality Ales. Im bound to keep uploading photos and editing certain blogs due to new destinations and oppurtunities to experiment with the Ales of Australia.If your not an Australian and your reading this NO fosters is not our beer of choice (well for the majority of us anyway!)
Lion Nations Range Of Australian Beer
Due to great marketing internationally most people from abroad would assume Fosters is what the majority of Australians order at the bar.
Cooper's.
Is the sole remaining family owned brewery which started back in 1862 by Thomas Cooper.
Im a fan of the coopers line. Below is my top 3.
Coopers Original Pale Ale 4.5%
Carries the trademark sediment which gives the beer its cloudy appearance. Very robust with fruity flavors a well rounded beer for any occasion.
Sparkling Ale 5.8%
Stronger in taste and alcohol content, darker in color and carrying the distinct sediment coopers in renown for. A very well balanced distinct taste of hops, malt and fruity flavors a must try beer while in Australia.
Extra Strong Vintage Ale 7.5%
A very strong ale. Apparently like a good wine this Ale can be stored for up to 18 months with the guarantee the beer will become more complex in flavor. I wasn't able to wait that long but was impressed with the beer regardless.
