COOPERS VINTAGE ALE

[ramblingboy42]

I just knocked the lid off a 3yo coopers vintage ale.

talk about yum.

I'm a beer lover but dont drink much.

I buy a sixpack of vintage every year and drink one of each every year , So I dont know what they're like after 6 years.

I asked Glen Cooper and he laughed and said they never last that long there.

I can understand why Glen's grandfather was contracted to make his ale as a medicinal beverage for the early SA Hospital.

I'm drinking this as I'm writing and I'm feeling better by the minute.[bigsmile][bigsmile][bigsmile][bigrolf][bigrolf][bigrolf]

Be blowed if I can find any anywhere.

Rang Coopers and a young fellow I spoke to was quite miffed when I told him none was available at any of the outlets they nominated.

I asked him if Coopers would send me a carton freight free as I am a founding Coopers Club member and certified lifetime club member.

He became a bit agitated and said they wouldnt do that....I suggested that they already send me similar size parcels of their brewing products freight free.

I then asked him to put me through to Glen Cooper and he said he wouldnt do that even after I made it clear to him that Glen and I are on speaking terms , so I told him when the call was finished I'd call Glen personally and inform him of his employees telephone manner. I haven't done that but I think I left the lil squeezer wondering...

Same here, RB. A mate and I were on to it from Taws and still haven't come up with any! I keep seeing their ad for the "Vintage", though.

So, Coopers Vintage is the new toilet paper? Seems like eggs are that down here.

I wonder if the Ambulance Ranking problem started there? All the prehistoric old geezers queuing up each day to get a Pint. I might put a call through to the current Premier suggesting this, & "it may well Cut the **** allocation Pete, & Ambulance Ranking might just disappear ". .Well you never know? Back in the good olde days they would have had 'or**** piling up at the Casualty entrance. Possibly.:Rolling:

The 'Dans' at Mitchelton, Brissie website says they have some in stock. I'd be phoning first, though!

Especially if you're coming from Adelaide, for a six pack.
