Coopers Draft List

Updated: Tuesday, March 29, 2005

Cooper’s House Lager (PA, 4.7% Lager) Brewed especially for Coopers by the award winning Stoudt’s of Adams PA. Similar to Yuengling Lager but better!

Rogue Shakespeare Stout (Mass, 6% Stout ) This is a cult classic American stout, drink and learn. Balanced to perfection and a sheer delite to drink.

Fullers Porter (London, 5.4% London Porter) Richly layered with hints of charcoal, dark unsweetened chocolate and highly roasted coffee ... a ghost like smoke and buttery diacetyl coat the tongue yet vanishes in the end. A wonderfully delicious and complex beer.

Franziskaner Hefe Weiss (Germany, 5.1% Munich Helles Lager) Soft ripe banana and clove with a wheat malt and faintly phenolic twang in the nose. A fantastic weissbier, one of the best in our book. Go for the traditional schooner of this, you won’t be sorry!

Hoegaarden (Belgium, 5.0% Witbier) The original White Ale, and grandfather to many a Summer-style white ale. This is a sweet/sour beer with a little bitterness - slightly spicy, with a strong touch of coriander and a hint of orange. Decidedly interesting and very refreshing.

Veletins (Germany, 4.8% Pilsner) We brought this bad boy in special for Dennis. Light bodied, dry. Smooth dextrin sweetness that carries through. Hop flavour is leafy and oily, a bit spicey and tea-like with a mild twang at the end. A very refreshing Pilsner and a nice alternative to US commercial Lagers and Pilsners.

Killian’s Irish Red (Ireland, 5.0% Euro Pale
Lager) Rich amber color and a thick, creamy head. Introduced into the U.S. in 1981. Gold medalist (amber lager) at 1998 World Beer Cup.

Legacy Reading Pills (Reading PA, 5.0% Pilsner ) This beer starts with a light golden color, and moves to a snappy, sharp and well-hopped clean, dry finish.

Smithwicks (Ireland, 5.0% Irish Red Ale ) The only place you will find this beer is here at Coopers!! From Ireland's oldest brewery (1710, but now owned by Guinness) comes an impressive, well-made brew. Really nicely balanced with a firm bitterness that supports the malt but never really comes forward. Full flavored, but also very drinkable.

Harp (Ireland, 5.0% Irish Pale Lager) Celebrate St. Patty's day with Harp! A true Irish Lager. Nice near amber color, decent lasting head, creamy mouthfeel, light sweetness, cling-y soft & faint buttery flavor and a fruity backbone. Extremely easy to drink and an excellent session beer.

Abita Andy Gator (Louisiana, ?% Doppelbock) A creature of the swamp, Andygator is a unique high gravity brew made with 2-row pale malt, German lager yeast, and Liberty hops. Unlike other high gravity brews, Andygator is fermented to a dry finish.

Troegs Nugget Nectar Limited Release (PA, 7.0% IPA) Squeeze those hops for all they’re worth and prepare to pucker up. This Ale, will take hopheads to nirvana with a heady collection of Nugget, Warrior and Tomahawk hops.

Victory Golden Monkey (PA, 9.5% Triple) Banana and spice hit up front big time with a little citrus in the background, very nice and refreshing for a big abv beer. Simply Amazing!

Framboise Lambic (Belgium, 4.0%) Subtle sweetness of raspberries upfront quickly gets a one-two punch of tartness to give the mouth a puckering sensation. Simply amazing.

Yuengling Lager (PA, 5.1% Lager ) With its deep amber color, and mild hop character this traditional Lager is a classic brew, reminiscent of turn-of-the-century beers.

Guinness (Ireland, 4.1%, Stout) Ireland's most famous export.

Coors Light (Colorado, Light Lager 4.2%) A taste born high in the rocky mountains.

Miller Lite (Wisconsin, Light Lager 4.1%) Tastes Great, Less Filling. . . . Or is it Less Filling, Tastes Great?

On the Hand Pump : Southern Tier Old Man (NY, 7.5% American Strong Ale) A rich and complex
amalgam of hops and barley that will put the feeling back in your toes and lift your spirits above the cold. Old Man throws a deep and inviting hue with a thickness that clings to the glass and the warmth of an open flame. Because of its high alcohol content, Old Man Winter is a heady brew that encourages sipping and pondering its essential richness.
