I found this tidbit on the Healthy Living web site,living.health.com/2008/07/23/surprising-new-uses-for-beer/. I thought I'd share it with all the Coopers customers.

Okay. It's still a little early but we can't resist product testing. The European Lager has been in the keg in my fridge now for at least 7 weeks. So today I pulled a complete pint to taste. Maybe it's the 90°heat here, but it was pure heaven. We also kegged the Australian Pale that we made last week. I did a little sampling of that as well and except for the fact that it's not carbonated, it is ready to drink now. It will improve with age however.
Cheers!!

 When we started making the Coopers European Lager on June 23 we noticed that the instructions that come with the beer kit call for cooler fermentation temperatures. The yeast supplied with Coopers European Lager is a true lager yeast strain. Lager yeast behaves differently to the normal Coopers Yeast. Preferred brewing temperature is at the low end of the recommended range (ie. 21°C or 70°F). Coopers European yeast can ferment as low as 13°C or 55°F. Lower ferment temperatures extend the fermentation period. Make sure fermentation has completed before ...

We've been contacted many times about high altitude brewing and if it makes a difference. Our Brewmaster addresses that concern and also we found a site that has a metric conversion tool to assist in converting from metric to US measurements. Cheers!
