Hi all,
Cooper's Sparkling Ale is the only "sparkling ale" I've seen here in the US. Are there other "Sparkling Ale's" in Australia?
I'm researching some of the lesser-known beer styles, so I'm trying to figure out is "Sparkling Ale" is an actual style in Australia or if it's just that one beer by Cooper's. Though of course, it may "be" a style and only represented by that one beer.
From what I've read about Cooper's Sparkling Ale is that it's derived from an English Pale ale, but it's stronger in alcohol (5.8%) that a typical English Pale would be. Anyway...if it is a style, I'm trying to put together a style description with tasting notes, any history, typical ingredients and its compete stats (range for OG,FG,IBU,Color/SRM,%alc).
Any help appreciated...
Thanks!!
Greg
