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.

Bottle from Oak Tree. Pours burnished gold with a little white foam. Strong ginger aroma. Flavor is sweet with ginger. A good dose of ginger. Love ginger, but not necessarily this brew. Still, it’s ginger!

This stuff is halarious soda pop. From a clear bottle looks like ginger ale. Smooth delicious soda pop feel with enjoyable CO2 creamy burn. Can’t beleive there is any alky in this stuff. You’d have to drink a sixpack of this to get talky. Yes, very enjoyable, much better than any NA beer fer sure. Reminds me of many fruity soda pop lambics. Soda pop fer sure, never goes flat even to the last drop. Yes interesting mild burning sensation at the finsh.

Bottle. Sweet ginger aroma. Dark yellow color with no head. Sweet ginger flavor with moderate carbonation. No beer characteristics at all that I can detect. Tastes all right but really just like its non-alcoholic counterparts.

Paid $1.50 for a 12 oz single bottle. Average golden yellow in color, but nice & soft fluffy white head. I don't smell anything that resembles beer... this nose is full of ginger. Gets extra points for being interesting. ACK, what did I just put in my mouth? This is beer? Tastes more like pop (or soda for you people who don't know the word pop). It's sweet, unbeerlike, and just gross. The only good here is the aftertaste, which is smooth and mellow... This is disgusting, basically undrinkable. Save your time, your money, and your self respect, and pass this one by. I had to dump it out.

Caramel colour with a thin tan head. Aroma of ginger, sugars and a subtle fruityness. Light-bodied; Sweet flavour resembling ginger beer, caramel and caster sugar-nothing like a ’normal’ beer. Aftertaste clean and very sweet! Overall, a decent choice for the summer. I got this twelve ounce bottle at Total Wine in Chantilly, Virginia. Score for this variety: 6,3,5,1,7.
