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 yellow with a small fizzy white head that dissipates with some lacing. Aroma is pretty strong grain, skunk, corn syrup. Taste is about the same, light sweet and no real bitterness present. Light bodied and unexciting in all respects.

Bouteille claire. de couleur jaune pâle et claire. Nez de maïs sucré, léger de grains de malt pâle et de fruits (citron) avec des traces de houblon herbeux. Léger goût de grains de malt pâle sucrés avec des petites notes fruitées (citron) lors de l’entrée en bouche suivi rapidement par un goût de maïs sucré puis en finale l’on retrouve des notes de houblon herbeux. Post-goût court, très faiblement sucré provenant du grain avec des traces de houblon herbeux.

Bottle. Skunk in a bottle.. stinky! Once it aired out a bit, I could detect a little grainy malt. Yellow with a moderate white head, poor retention. Super sweet corn flavor. Light carbonated body. Really didn’t dig this one.

Total Wine, Fairfax 11.6 oz ($1.79): Pours black with a brown head. Aroma is sweet roasted malt type of stuff (coffee toffee). Taste is mostly just sugar, in the form of a lot of molasses. Coffee ice cream type taste. Better than I expected.
