Coopers 2024 Vintage Ale: A tropical take on an old classic

The much anticipated Coopers 2024 Vintage Ale is hitting liquor store shelves and taps across the country.

Coopers Brewery has launched its annual extra strong brew – the 2024 Vintage Ale – only with a tropical twist.

Each year, the Coopers expert brewing team creates an exclusive craft-style ale with a distinctive blend of hops, solidifying its status as one of Australia’s most anticipated beers.

Keeping true to its vintage heritage, this year’s premium craft style beer is a full-bodied extra-strong ale with an IBU of 65 and alcohol level of 7.5% ABV.

Coopers Vintage Ale is an ode to the art of brewing, with each annual release characterised by a different, careful selection of hop varieties.

The 2024 Vintage Ale features Solero, a German hop variety which offers bursts of pineapple, mango and passionfruit aromas.

The new hop, Bru-1 from the USA, provides herbal and citrus notes, leading to berry, spice and melon characters on the palate.

The flavour and aromas of Coopers Vintage Ale are accentuated by rolling the bottle gently before opening and gently pouring into a stemmed beer glass. It is best savoured with rich foods and perfect for the cooler months.

While this limited-edition brew is perfect to drink now, it can also be stored under cellar conditions, where it will further develop its malty characters.

This year’s release marks the 24th in Coopers Brewery’s Vintage Ale series since its inception in 1998.

Launched in the lead up to Father’s Day, the Coopers 2024 Vintage Ale makes the perfect gift and is available at liquor stores in 355mL bottles, six packs and 24-pack cartons.

Beer enthusiasts can also taste Vintage Ale on tap at selected venues across the country for a limited time.
