Carling Black Label has been quenching South Africans’ thirst for over 40 years. As one of the most awarded beers in the world, it has built a reputation which is hard to ignore.
A quality brew The beer itself is one of the stronger lagers in South Africa with a clean, refreshing taste. It has a spicy hoppiness complemented by lightly kilned malted barley. There are also subtle fruity notes in the aroma and taste, adding to the depth of the beer. A dense white head and straw-coloured body characterise it.

Shared at the Cotteridge convention 2019. Poured a clear straw colour with a bubbly white head. The aroma is lager yeast, malt, light woody hop. The flavour is moderate bitter, light sweet, with a light, watery, crisp, malt, light woody hop bitter palate. Medium to light bodied with average carbonation.
