Oh by the way, this being the "Things that give you the shits" thread.
Coopers has been removed from the shelves of Costco Fukuoka. This being the only place I know of in Kyushu that sells it (used to).
On demanding an explanation from a company representative, his explanantion ran along the lines that it was expensive compared to XXXX and Fosters. On being told that it was because XXXX tastes like uma no oshiko (horse's piss) the representative replied that it sells, and that is all that matters.
At least two people that I have converted to Coopers over here have made similar complaints about the product's withdrawal, and I am currently recruiting other converts to add their voices to the throng.
Bring back Coopers!
I'm gonna sit back, crack the top off a Pale Ale, and watch the Double Blues prevail
