Much-loved Adelaide brewery Coopers has unveiled a spectacular new $70 million home.
Family-owned Coopers says it has “created the ultimate Australian beer experience” for visitors to its Regency Park site while also launching into whisky production for the first time in its 162-year history.
Coopers is Australia’s largest independent, family-owned brewery.
Situated adjacent to the existing brewery, the new facility features a restaurant and three bars, along with an outdoor plaza dining and family areas.
There will aldo be a dedicated tasting room, a microbrewery, whisky distillery, history display and guided tours and underground stillage for 5000 whisky barrels.
The doors will be open to the public from August 28.
“This is one of the most exciting projects we’ve undertaken in the 162-year history of Coopers Brewery,” managing director Dr Tim Cooper (above) said.
“Our team has been humbled by the public’s interest, excitement and support as this impressive building has taken shape.
“We wanted every aspect to be truly world-class and of the highest quality. It’s a significant, long-term investment by our family company and our vote of confidence in the future of Coopers and Australia’s manufacturing industry.
“Coopers is very proud to have created a highly unique and immersive experience that ultimately celebrates the very best of Australian beer. We look forward to welcoming visitors from across Australia and overseas into our new home.”
The new microbrewery will allow Coopers to experiment with craft beer styles which will be made available to the public.
Given the extended timeline for spirit maturation, it will likely be a few years before Coopers’ first whisky is available for consumption.
