Carling Black Label developed as a brand in 1927 from the Canadian brewery Carling O’Keefe's existing Black & White Lager. It was introduced into the UK in 1952. The brand became hugely successful in the UK via a very popular ad campaign with the slogan "I bet he drinks Carling Black Label". The name changed from Carling Black Label to Carling, with the subtitle Original Lager, in 1997.

There is nothing expectional with this beer, standard lager, gold body, malt, corn, watery, some hop, drinkable, tasting this beer during some old trips in England.

Klar gylden med hvitt skum som daler sakte. Aroma malt humle eple sitrus. Smak malt eple humle gress. Fin fylde, lett fruktig, lett bitter. Grei øl

0.5 l can, had this one at Fuengirola. Pours a golden color with permanent foam, nice looking. It has no aroma at all. A bit watery, malty taste. No finishing, low carbonation, light body. No big deal, yet still refresing after the Spanish beers.

0,5 boks fra Carrefour, på balconasen etter en nydelig dag på stranden: klar gylden med fint skum som varer lenge. Forsvinnende få (dvs. ingen) inntrykk av det som karakteriserer en god lager, mer som å stikke tunga ut i tåke. Et nytt, solid lavmål i middelmådighet.

Old rating from 1996 - From the tap, pours golden with a white foamy head. Aromas & tastes of corn, hints of citrus, grain & hops. Moderate body. Strong carbonation. Light bitter finish
