The natural bottle conditioning is what gives Coopers ales their unique flavour and cloudy appearance. To achieve this, a small amount of live yeast is added to the beers prior to packaging. This in-bottle fermentation naturally carbonates the beer and eliminates the need for any preservatives or additives. To fully appreciate Coopers Beers, gently roll the bottle to fully incorporate the yeast sediment before pouring.
