I found this site, alot have probably seen it but thought I would post it anyway.

http://www.cooperspubs.com/

Gives a pretty down to earth review of SA pubs that sell Coopers on tap. Good for visitors (although nearly every pub has Coopers on tap here anyway)

Also has lists of interstate pubs that sell Coopers beer.

PS I am not on the Coopers payroll but probably should be considering this post.

Cheers

I was on a business trip in adelaide and I went through about 6 pubs / bars in the area and could only find pale and sparkling on tap.

I was keen to try some other ones but couldn't seem seem to locate any.

The list will help next time I'm down there

Cheers

My pick for Coopers would be the Austral on Rundle Street, it's got all Coopers beer on tap and good atmosphere.

Not sure how up to date the NSW listing is, it's missed the bondi pubs.

Agreed. You can't go wrong. Plus they have keg-aged Coopers Sparkling Ale on tap. Yum!

Yep, it tastes very different. Sparkling Ale ages incredibly.

I once was given a longneck Sparkling bottle form the Leabrook Brewery (their very last batch). It was about 18 months old at the time. It was one of the best beers I've ever had. Honey and fruit flavours were prevalent. Delish.

sometimes i feel like i'm the only person on earth who dislikes the austral

You are.

Darn, the link didn't work anymore.
I did find Cooper's Dark Ale on tap at the Albert Hotel in Tamworth when I lived there. It was nice to have an alternative dark brew to the stalwart Tooheys Old.
Here in Brisbane, I've only found one pub that has Toohey's Old on tap, and they have Cooper's Pale as well. It would be great to find more Cooper's places here. I stopped at the Story Bridge Hotel because they have a big Cooper's sign atop visible from the motorway, but all they had was Pale.

There isn't enough Coopers here in Canberra. Only pale, and the occasional sparkling. I want stout!

Who's the backwater now , Eastern seaboard?!

Mate your not alone im not a big fan either. Its to small and you have to wait for a beer to long. Yeah there sparkling is nice but still not a fan. Tho i do go in there to drink with mates but dont make it a must

I like The Historian, off a little street between Pirie and Grenfell, one street back from Gawler Place. Dark Ale on tap mmmm

I am too ashamed to go back to the Austral after a particularly big night a couple of years ago.


I'm sure they will have forgiven me by now, but i still feel awkward even walking past the place

LOL - you're 18 NOW right? do tell the story

Yes, I'd have been 16 or 17 at the time, but I'm a big lad and know a lot of bouncers because I've been Djing clubs/pubs for about 4 years.

the picture alone isn't really an explanation in it's self, but the fact that this happened more than twice, and once into a pint glass (which i then spilt) means I can't go back.

a few other things happened which i won't go into in the interests of not incriminating myself.

You`re kiddin!
I wouldn`t be going back there if I was you, either.
In fact, I wouldn`t be going any f####n where.
