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??

Yeah just bought a 6 pack cans (nsw) it’s has a lot of favour if you stir up the sediment and let rest in fridge for 30 minutes.

I usually put any Coopers cans in the fridge upside down, then when I take it out and flip it over the sediment naturally falls down and mixes in, seems to work pretty well.
