Ben  said about 2 years ago  or at  4:22PM on Thursday, March 4 2010 in chat

ok... who's drunk this stuff?

any good?

anything like Coopers Pale?...or more like Carlton?


Modi  said about 2 years ago:
  1. Buy one
  2. drink it
  3. make up your own mind

Arthurly  said about 2 years ago:

Modi, don't be a douche.


wipey  said about 2 years ago:

My opinion is ''Yuck, Yuck fucken yuck yuckitee yuckerton''

I love Coopers but Coopers Clear was a turn in a Bottle


Digital  said about 2 years ago:

But i can't finish off making up my own mind without hearing other people's minds first.

Actually haven't had this stuff either. Please report back someone.


Digital  said about 2 years ago:

What flavour of yuckerton?


scallywag  said about 2 years ago:

ill give it a go.

had doubts about their pilsener because of the shit name. but was possibly the best pilsener i've ever tasted.


happycow  said about 2 years ago:

More like Pure Blonde and other low carb beers. It's alright. I had some at Applecore but only because of the $10 six pack promo. Pure Blonde and St George Blonde are better similar beers. I didn't have an esky so they got warm pretty quick which no doubt tainted the experience.


Block  said about 2 years ago:

It's beer, but not very good beer.
I didn't realise you were such a connessieur, Ben.


Digital  said about 2 years ago:

Basically partly sprightly alcoholic water then?


happycow  said about 2 years ago:

Not quite as good as partly sprightly alcoholic water.


happycow  said about 2 years ago:

But better than VB still.


Adrian-Ronalds  said about 2 years ago:

low carb beer is stupid.

BEER IS ALREADY LOW CARB!

its the calories man, the calories.


Ben  said about 2 years ago:

Im off to the bottleshop now and I want the best and cheapest beer in a can.

so Modi's advice is not helpful right now

everyone elses is... thanks


happycow  said about 2 years ago:

If you're looking for cans for GP Ben you're better off going with other beer in the canned coopers range.


njk  said about 2 years ago:

Watery.


Modi  said about 2 years ago:

Oh, come on. Buy one, skoll it out the front of the shop, make a decision.

pussy.


bamesjaker  said about 2 years ago:

Coopers had a Clear on the market in the mid 1990s, but they seem to have re-invented it. Not sure if it's the same yeast strain (apparently they used the same strain for both the original Coopers Clear and the god-awful-everyone's-forgotten-for-good-reason Cooper's Black Crow).

The original version was very good. Like Southwark Premium but drinkable.


tangy_zizzle  said about 2 years ago:

budweiser isn't bad from a can. and guinness (poured properly)


Ron  said about 2 years ago:

I can give you my opinion of the Coopers Lager but not the Clear. But the lager's not in cans (I don't think) so you probably don't care.


mjj  said about 2 years ago:

It was on special last night in my supermarket. The 'watery' description above is accurate. I will not be buying again


crackwhore  said about 2 years ago:

tangy, bud is fucking terrible, i rather drink dishwater. Just go coopers pale ale Ben.


happycow  said about 2 years ago:

Bud is actually pretty good. It seems to have a bit of a reputation as being shit, maybe due to being the default American beer and the dumb ''waassuuuppp'' commercials. Didn't drink much else while in the states and it always went down well.


tangy_zizzle  said about 2 years ago:

bud is easy drinking and doesn't taste completely rubbish when warm (like vb, melb etc). suffers from unfair US beer stigma. it's flavourless, but tastes better than blondes, clears etc I reckon.


crackwhore  said about 2 years ago:

coors is a better option in the states happycow. Tangy. i think all beer is rubbish when a bit warm, i know it's blasphemy but i tip that shit out, bud is also a mid strength beer. Blondes and Clears are overrated, they remind me of when Carlton Cold came out in the mid 90's, what a hoax.


wipey  said about 2 years ago:

I'm waiting for Ben's opinion.
And if anyone would be a regular drinker of this Coopers clear. I liked coopers 62 It's good, good like a pen on a bit of paper when you're trying to write something, somewhat important or relevant for the time of writing that you're writing about. And it's not raining so your paper doesn't get wet and soggy and you don't have to sigh or anything like that.


Modi  said about 2 years ago:

Play your move, wipey.


wipey  said about 2 years ago:

oh ok, I'm had a couple though. I'm just going to do a stupid word and miss a corker.
I love ya modi


happycow  said about 2 years ago:

Can you get Coors here?

I really love drinking beer and drink beer as often as I can and love to try new beers and I'd even drink a whole can of Coopers Clear if there was nothing else.


Modi  said about 2 years ago:

What are you drinking, wipey? I am going to head to the bottle-o now. Cans. Lotsa cans.


Ben  said about 2 years ago:

I ended up going with a slab of german beer... 500ml cans... $42


wipey  said about 2 years ago:

Coopers Pale ale


rigid  said about 2 years ago:

never tasted the cunt. reckon i never will.


Ben  said about 2 years ago:

Oettinger


kabukiboy  said about 2 years ago:

i'm drinking coopers pale ale tonight but only cos the sparkling hurts my brain - i've got some nice glenmorganie for that instead....
