      I started brewing my own beer circa 1980ish and then I relied on canned   
   imports from the UK. Even if it tasted good, it wasn't exceptional. And yes, I   
   have a complete pub like station with carbonating stuff and all.   
      
      But then I discovered the Aussie Cooper's line of products, and my entire   
   beer world changed. I realized that the Englishmen that went to Australia took   
   with them something that was left behind -- true beer making.   
      
      I'm forever indebted to you Aussie guys for giving me the best brew you can   
   make yourself.   
      
   BTW: From what I've heard it's the Swedish company Alfa Laval that made the   
   machines for Cooper.  8-)
