Coopers Brewery has a long rich history, which spans from its origins in 1862 to the present day.
Over 150 years, Coopers has survived economic recessions, wars, government imposts, changing fashions, and a hostile takeover bid.
Today, Coopers stands proudly as the sole major brewer 100% owned by Australians, and holds over 5% of the Australian beer market.
The brewery produces a range of Ales, Stouts and Lagers. Our ale range is brewed by a method of top fermentation, originating in the Middle Ages. Coopers uses only natural ingredients including malt, hops, sugar, water and a special yeast strain that's over 90 years old.
The descendants of Thomas Cooper still run the brewery, and it's an everyday occurrence to meet a Cooper at Regency Park.
Successive Coopers have never lost sight of Thomas’ vision of providing value and quality in the form of healthy beer for an appreciative public, and we intend to continue that tradition.
It is who we are and how we brew. From being the pioneers of craft brewing on the Gold Coast, to now being among Queensland’s most awarded Independent Brewers, Burleigh Brewing has built a community around inspiring people to live their passions by creating the world’s best beers every day. Our love for craft is translated through each of the flavours we create and the variety in our line-up speaks volumes about our experience. The greatest beer is one we haven’t even brewed yet!
Some of us make beer, some of us make sales, some of us make paper-work...together, we make it all happen. We are an ever-growing team of brewers, bottlers, warehouse crew, sales people, marketers and administrators. Without exception, we are all committed to a world class approach.
