Many of our brewers are finding out the benefits of kegging. For those who are just starting out, we offer some priming and dispensing advice.

We just brewed the IPA last Friday.

Your beer might be still fermenting even though you have no airlock activity.

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.

 Fall is fast upon us. We have a some beers to recommend for your fall brewing.  And a twist to give the Real Ale some red ale kick.

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!!
