“Mid-strength beers use the same base ingredients as full-strength beers – malt, hops, yeast and water – but the brewing process is carefully adjusted to achieve lower alcohol,” says Jon Meneses, brewing and supply chain manager at Coopers Brewery. “With Coopers Dry 3.5, the aim was to keep the flavour and character of a true Coopers beer, even at a lower ABV,” says Jon.

Coopers Dry 3.5 is brewed to deliver fewer calories without losing flavour. It contains just 0.7g of carbohydrates per 100ml (2.6g per 375ml can), 24 calories per 100ml (91 calories per 375ml can), and sits at 3.5% ABV. The lower alcohol also naturally reduces calorie content, making it a strong contender for those seeking a low-carb mid-strength beer.

For maximum refreshment, serve Coopers Dry 3.5 ice cold – straight from the fridge and into a chilled glass. The chill brings out its subtle hop character and crisp, dry finish, making it especially satisfying on a warm day.

With its crisp finish and subtle hop character, Coopers Dry 3.5 is a versatile match for food – pairing easily with BBQ classics, seafood, salads and lighter pub meals. “For something special, try Coopers Dry 3.5 with grilled prawns fresh off the BBQ – this is a Coopers team favourite,” says Jon Meneses, brewing and supply chain manager at Coopers Brewery.

“No, Coopers Dry 3.5 is not gluten free,” says Jon Meneses, brewing and supply chain manager at Coopers Brewery. “Like all Coopers ales and lagers, it is brewed with malted barley, which contains gluten.”
