I think it shouldn't affect the taste of your brew much if you are using such a small amount for priming. I have tried tasting Cooper's IPA goo (unfermented) before and taste bitter as well.
Got it from the craftbrew site. Pretty interesting.
Special properties of Liquid Hops:

Easy...
For a draught, I think you can get away with a good amount of dextrose. It's meant to be easy drinking and doesn't need to have heavy on the body.
Cooper's BE2 seems to do the trick for me.
If my supplier is to be trusted, he says that it is a "premium" yeast from Cooper's. It seems to be of a different packaging from that of the other Cooper's yeast, so I guess he could be right.
Hello guys, I am planning to get the Cooper's Australian Pale Ale goo and perhaps 1kg of BE2. I was wondering what else could I add to make the beer even better? I am thinking of using some speciality grains for steeping. Any recommendation is greatly appreciated.
This is after how long you pitched your new yeast? Anyway, I don't think you should bottle it. You may get too much yeast in suspension in your bottled beer. Let it settle for one or two more weeks. I don't think that the newly added yeast will affect your beer.
After you guys brew the ginger beer, I was wondering whether the smell and the taste of the ginger beer will remain in the fermenter even after you have washed it very thoroughly? I had heard people complaining that the smell and taste is still around in their fermenters.
