19th August 2011 News (Previously published online in The Week That Was Friday 19th<\/sup> August 2011)<\/p>\n The Coopers brewing family in Adelaide are looking towards the summer and the flurry of brewing activity that comes with the change of seasons by installing a second mash tun today. (that\u2019s the bit they make malt porridge in, for the non-brewers) The tun is 10 metres tall with a working capacity of 35,000 litres and will be able to boost production by another 50%. This big bugger has to be lifted by crane and installed through the roof. It\u2019s seems things are looking positive for the Aussie brewing icon while the rest of the industry worries about changing beer consumption statistics in Australia.<\/p>\n Little Creatures are embracing the cold weather with a new limited release brew. Called The Dreadnaught, it\u2019s a single batch Foreign Extra Stout. Weighing in at 7.4%abv it\u2019ll warm the cockles while supplying a nourishing amount of malty depth. It\u2019s chock full of dark Munich and ale malts and hopped to 60ibu\u2019s (International Bitterness Units) with English Fuggles. Don\u2019t be scared off by the high amount of bitterness though, it\u2019s balanced well by the malt so you\u2019d guess it\u2019s closer to 30. Get a bottle while you can, it\u2019s limited.<\/p>\n Got some brewing industry news, release information or good old gossip?<\/p>\n Twitter: @beerradar<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" Beer Radar By John Kr\u00fcger 19th August 2011 News (Previously published online in The Week That Was Friday 19th August 2011) The Coopers brewing family in Adelaide are looking towards the summer and the flurry of brewing activity that comes with the change of seasons by installing a second mash tun today.
