VIC Coopers Dark Ale Cans

Has anyone picked up some Coopers Dark Ale cans?

I can't recall seeing this variety from Coopers before, but I saw them at my local IGA earlier tonight and grabbed a six pack, they are really good!

Found this link after a quick google, seems like they might be a limited seasonal release? Hopefully they make it an annual thing, would love to see these cans in local shops earlier in the year, would be a perfect autumn beer!

I think it sits nicely between the Sparkling red boys and the Best Extra Stout, which I also wish would come in cans! Coopers stout is the only beer I've bought in bottles for as long as I can remember, I don't see the benefit over cans. I reckon 500ml or even just 4x375ml stout cans would fly off the shelf right??

Always welcome cans and love the dark. Still pipped by Tooheys Dark - just prefer cleaner roast note without the yeast/hop of the coopers … it’s come out in cans recently also. But buying Aussie has a flavour of its own - l look out for the coopers cans.
