The plain bog standard coopers lager that I made my wife isn't a bad drop, though a little dull for my taste, I did a muntons kit (believe it was the connoisseur pils) with a saaz tea which was very nice.

I've done the Coopers Australian Lager with 500g of Light Spraymalt & 500g of brewing sugar and that was very nice after about for 4 weeks and great after 8 :D

I have also recently brewed the Coopers Heritage Lager with 1kg of Extra Light Spraymalt & 300g of brewing sugar with a Saaz hop tea, and that is even better, and really drinkable from about 3 weeks :wink:
