HOPIQ TAKE

Ch'Ti Blonde if you want a softer, more delicate pale ale experience, Coopers Sparkling Ale if you want assertive bitterness and a drier finish. Ch'Ti leans into Belgian elegance—you're getting subtle spice and a clean sweetness that doesn't punch hard. Coopers is built different: it's got that Australian character where the hops actually show up and the carbonation cuts through like a blade. Both are crushable at their ABV, but they're playing different games.

TASTING NOTES

Ch'Ti Blonde

RefreshingCleanFruity

Ch'Ti hits you with this immediate softness—not flabby, just graceful. There's a light honey-grain core with a whisper of Belgian yeast doing its thing in the background, maybe a touch of coriander or white pepper if you're paying attention. The 6.4% sits comfortably; you feel the alcohol as warmth, not heat. Finishes clean and almost polite, like someone's thanking you for the conversation.

Coopers Sparkling Ale

CleanCrispHoppy

Coopers is snappier than you'd expect at 5.2%. The hops are legit present—herbal, slightly floral, with this dry graininess that makes your mouth feel active. There's a minerality to it, almost chalky in the best way. The carbonation is alive and aggressive, which amplifies everything. You're getting bitterness that lingers, but it's not mean; it's just honest and refreshing.
