Manufacturer description

Coopers Brewery Limited is the largest Australian-owned and the country's only family-owned brewery. Its history goes back to 1862 when it was founded by Thomas Cooper in South Australia. Still thriving today and based in the Adelaide suburb of Regency Park, the company is still owned primarily by the extended Cooper family. Coopers is known particularly for its famous Pale Ale and Sparkling Ale, although it is the world's leading manufacturer of 'Home Brew' products. Annual production has exceeded just under 70 million litres in any one year.Our 1:76 scale replica will certainly provide an unusual addition to any brewery enthusiast's collection and comes with black Volvo FH3 cab and black curtainside trailer with grey tank straps. The trailer roof is masked silver, also used to enhance curtain straps, fuel tank, wheels and side bars. The detail lies in the colourful graphics along the sides which represent the bottle labels of Coopers favourite tipples from Original Pale Ale to Best Extra Stout. Their strapline in white runs the length of the trailer sides 'No wonder we're called the lucky country. Australian Made. Australian Owned. The registration plate reads simply COOPERS.
