Commercial Description:
Carlton Dry has an exceptional dry finish that has been achieved through an extended brewing process, creating a smoother, drier beer that has 30% less carbohydrates than other full strength beers. The Carlton dry logo emphasises the most recognisable and loved elements of the Carlton tradition, such as the iconic Clydesdales and the brand's historic founding in 1864.

Tiny generic lager head, with slight lacing. Crystal clear bronze pour. Aroma is metallic, astringent, slight lemon. Pretty damn bad. Essence of piss. Tastes is of carboard malt, soap and cooked cabbage. No bitterness whatsoever. Very watery, with lively carbonation. Overall, pretty horrible. Never buying this again.

How is this different to the premium dry? Or is it the same beer just misdescribed on ratebeer? Anyway, smells of wet dog and cardboard. Taste is flat and dull. Awful

Bottle - Clear pale gold with thin white head. Medium carbonation. Thin and watery. Sweet with a weak maltiness and dominanted by corny flavour. Artificial tasting. Pretty much what I expected which was not much at all.

Ok I made a mistake entering this beer into the fray but that is because I had too many! Now I won’t be harsh on this beer because it is not a bad lager, not too hoppy and also drinks well for a Sunday lunch at a BBQ. So, kudos to the CUB boys for this... PS: Anyone reading my ratings will know I do not rate way too high due to many factors...
