It’s been too long since you’ve spent time with your favourite people and are in the midst of them all at a get together at your home. You’re pleasantly overwhelmed by the cornucopia of scents and sounds around you. Everyone has walked with their favourite dish and roars of laughter can be heard from across the street. As you clink your bottle of a ginger Shandy Carib ginger with your father’s bottle of sorrel Shandy Carib, you take a moment to relish the memories being made.
The following weekend, deep-blue waves are in front of you, golden sand is sinking beneath your feet and your gaze is fixed upon the horizon. While sipping on a lime Shandy Carib, the crisp sea breeze whispers sweet nothings into your ear. The stress of a hectic week is washed away as the foam of the surf tickles your feet and then playfully retreats. This rejuvenating break is exactly what you needed!
A great lager beer is by itself a treasure but a great beer combined with the zing of ginger, the festive and spicy sweetness of sorrel or the revitalizing kick of lime creates winning and classic combinations. This is what the Carib brewery introduced in 1985 – an instant classic. The authentic taste of this light alcoholic beverage is a consumer favourite because its delightful and unique burst of flavours reconnects consumers with fun and memorable times with family and friends.

June 2008: Green 275ml bottle, best before Dec 2008. Drank on a boiling hot afternoon in Tobago on my hotel room balcony. This beer doesn’t pretent to be anything else except a refreshing low alcohol shandy. It does it very well. Pale lager colour, no head though. Lemonade and Lime smell, as you would expect by its name. Overal not bad, it was what I needed at the time and my score is obviously more subjective than objective because of the circumstances of the review.

Yes, is a shandy; limeat that. Better than a typical fruit beer. Much lime ade in this stuff and it comes across as friendly. Wew, I don’t think I can handle the 1.2%, eheh. Fun easy fruity pop flavors. Enjoyable fruit. On the label, water is the main ingredient in this brew, then comes beer. Fruity fun beer something experience; could drink a six pack of this, easy. Yes, sugar sweet lime ade thing going on.

The point? LIke it’s a new "country"? Anyway the bottle is from Vintage Cellar. The ABV suggests a "family" beer. Something for the little ones. Brassy gold color with a very emphemeral head. Aroma of lime. It is fizzy like ginger ale, but there is also a decent lime flavor with some ginger bite. Talk about the ultimate session beer. I’m a sometime beer snob, but this is an interesting and not unpleasant surprise. It’s sweet, but not sticky. Crazy stuff.
