Description
This is how it all began; this is the heart of our history. Sir Gerald Wight, founder of the Caribbean Development Company (CDC), ensured that the production process, which was based on the European-Continental method of brewing with our own twist, was mastered before the company’s flagship beverage, Carib Lager Beer was sold in 1950. In fact CDC still produces the perfect lager today because our formula continues to include the best ingredients, unwavering quality and constant innovation.

Today Carib Brewery boasts a portfolio that includes Beer, Malt, Stout and Soft Drinks. We produce Carib, Carib Light, Stag, Pola and Pola Light, Shandy Carib, Mackeson and Guinness as well as the following nonalcoholic brands; Ginseng-Up, Malta Carib, Malta Carib Ultra, Smalta Smalta Smiles – over 1,200,000 hectoliters of product every year.

Our acute insight into what our consumers enjoy has also inspired us to form partnerships with international companies such as Heineken International B.V., Diageo and Ginseng Up Corporation. As a result Heineken, Guinness Stout, Ginseng Up and Smirnoff Ice are also part of our portfolio.

Bottle. Pours clear pale golden with smal white head. Clear aroma of hops with a subtle skunky note. Skunky andnricy flavour with hoppy notes. Dryish aftertaste. I would possibly drink it in the Caribbean but not willingly otherwise. Drinkable but just that.

Bottle, 5.2%. Weak grainy aroma. Clear yellow colour. Small chalk white head. The flavour is grainy with some paper. The graininess gets unpleasant rather quickly.

Lemony citrus aroma is the best aspect of this lager. Decent appearance , but flat, bland taste and little palate leave this beer lacking. May be thirst quenching in the tropical islands, but overall not very good...

Bottle first enjoyed at Pigeon Point, Tobago and then also in Barbados. Black with a small tan head, quite sweet toffee aroma and fairly full bodied. Minimal roasting. Preferring dark beers as I do, on this trip this was something of a treat when compared to most other beers available.
