Man how do you get the beer to stay in the glass like that?

I know Cooper's is based in Aussie-land - that must explain it.

That explains it...I wanted someone to teach me how to do that. If I remember correctly, my dark ale didn't give good head either...

Just a small update of the coopers dark ale. Those Bottles were opened literally on that date of the two week carbonation process. I let my father try one of the Coopers dark ale only a couple of days after, and it had a much nicer head on it as it was poured in a smaller glass. So perhaps the longer you let it sit in the bottles, and pouring it in a glass that is better suited for beer makes a difference. Honestly, it really is a nice tasting beer came out really nice and I'm eager to see what a little age does to the brew. It has been my limited experience that time can do wonderful things to a good brew.

Thanks for the photos! It's great to see a photo of a really enjoyable beer.

When I made it, minus the oaked bourbon, it tasted like a dark cream ale. Good stuff!
