Thought that craft ale was a relatively new phenomenon? Well, Adelaide’s Cooper family have been making beer that’s the envy of brewers around the world since 1862. That's when Thomas Cooper, attempting to make a health tonic, brewed his first beer by accident. One very happy accident. And one remarkable tasting beer. ‘Natural ale from natural ingredients’ has been their mantra ever since, epitomised by their now legendary ‘Red Label’ sparkling ale. Like Champagne, the bubbles are created by a secondary, in-bottle fermentation, adding a subtle sparkle to the fruity hop and rich malt flavours. This leaves a little sediment, which connoisseurs gently mix into the beer by rocking the bottle prior to opening. 100% natural, 100% delicious.
