My best is a can of Coopers Pale Ale, with a Grumpys Boston Cream. Brewed with two sachets of Pale Ale rehydrated yeast at around 18 degrees. Racked and bottled.

Bluddy Beeeeewdiful !! :P

All the coopers I did were nice.

it is prbly just me with the coopers bearded dude bitter, ?

bit peppery maybe but, it also got a bit hot and long (14 days) in the primary.

I know I was young and slack.
As I mature maybe I'll appreciate the good ole Darker ones.

cheers 501.
