This thread is great free advertisement for a great South Australian beer!
It tastes so good and is so wonderfully refreshing I might have some at lunchtime!

It'd be great if Port got a great South Australian brewer on board!

Coopers Original Pale Ale is light is light in colour but with 4.5% alc/vol it still has a bite.  The naturally fermented ale is brewed using the "Burton-on-Trent" style.  The Pale Ale, like most of the Coopers stable, is bottle fermented to give the beer that Coopers cloudy look caused by yeast residue.  To get the the full flavour effect stir the sediment throughout the beer by tipping the bottle on its side before opening.
The light smooth beer is easy to drink with a fresh fruity flavour, smooth finish and bitter aftertaste.  Coopers Original Pale Ale is brewed without any preservatives or chemicals so that the drinker can have that extra one or two with the hope that it won't catch up with them the next  day.  This top fermented ale is smooth, light and bitter and almost drinks itself.

Geezus isn't it? Dutchy, I better rip down the sportsbet and JS Sports logos!

Avoid making confusing posts by enjoying a regular refreshing Coopera Pale Ale!
Just like SAFooty in that it's proudly South Australian owned!

[Dutchy]

Coopers "willing to share"? They have no choice, there's an existing sponsorship arrangement in place with Lion Nathan. It's hardly a matter of being magnanimous. You seem to think it's unreasonable that a major sponsor asks for some exclusivity in relation to a rival company.

In the AFL Toyota are the major sponsoir yet other clubs are sponsored by Ford and Mazda - so remind me whats the issue here?

[Wedgie]

Talk sense like Dutchy by enjoying a regular wonderfully refreshing Coopers Pale Ale!

sorry for stating a fact

No problems, you could understand my confusion.

Good then. We agree, Dr.Timms isn't and can't be Pale. Thanks for clearing that up mate.

[topsywaldron]

PS: Any other news from Prospect of interest?

Still waiting on this, news from Prospect is always entertaining.

[Wedgie]

No worries Booney!
And a fine alternative to bottled beer is the magnificence of Dr Timms!
Coopers will be available both off the tap and in can form this football season as well as an option for another overseas owned brand for those with no taste.
Prospect Oval, the home of beer drinkers with choice, why would you go anywhere else?

[Booney]

Stop flogging on about the SA connection and the better beer mate. I love Coopers as much as anyone, trust me, but there is a bigger story to this than just getting to drink a Pale substitute at Prospect.

[Wedgie]

Even Booneys clear on his love for Coopers!
Speaking of clear Coopers now have a marvellous Coopers Clear.
A couple of my mates were drinking it Tuesday and highly recommend it.
Coopers, a beer for all occasions!

Was going to mention them but wasnt sure if they were still on board or not

[Voice]

Are you getting paid in cartons of Coopers for this Wedgie, or are you just hoping they'll pick up on it and throw a couple your way . If they do, throw a safooty party and I'll help you drink them

And if you're driving that Ford, Toyota, Mazda or Hyundai to and from a party Id re ommend you have a couple of Coopers Premium Lights.

Coopers Premium Light is brewed using malted barley and no sugar. Coopers has used traditional lager brewing techniques to produce a full-flavoured light beer. The light has a fresh aroma with clean floral hop notes, excellent head and colour presentation.

I can only assume the circumstances are different (e.g. Ford's sponsorship of Geelong would have pre-dated Toyota's sponsorship) and that Toyota's contract is different. And I would assume that a dividend from Toyota doesn't go directly to a club sponsored by a rival motor company, whereas here each club gets a substantial sum from Lion Nathan.
There have also been instances where AFL players have been prevented from wearing boots made by a rival company to a club's sponsor.
But, since you asked, the issue is that this deal puts at risk a large sponsorship of the SANFL and its clubs, if Lion Nathan believe their contract has been breached.

[Wedgie]

Hopefully it all falls apart if it means we can get a decent beer at other ovals.
That would be Sparkling!

So your saying none of Toyotas $$$ gets distributed to the clubs? Give me a break...and no its been years since boot manufacturers have been able to make players wear their boots....

[Wedgie]

Speaking of sparkling, I was chatting to a couple of mates over a wonderful Sparkling Ale yesterday and despite being mainly AFL fans they were delighted to hear they would now have a choice of beer at Prospect so instead of just visiting Norwood for some games they'll now be going to some games at Prospect.
It'll be great to see more people at the Footy who would previously hav stayed away because of having no choice of beer!
