Beer Review - #15 - Carlton Dry
Source
Brewed by:
Carlton & United Breweries, Australia
Alcohol Content:
4.5%
Beer Type:
Lager
History:
In 1864, an English immigrant, Edward Latham, opened the Carlton Brewery. In 1907, the Carlton Brewery amalagamated with the McCracken, Victoria, Shamrock, Foster’s and Castlemaine breweries. And so began the story of CUB (Carlton & United Breweries) which today is one of the world’s largest brewing companies.
According to the official website, 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. Source

Carlton Dry is available for purchase in: 355 mL bottles and 375 mL cans

Drinkers Review:
Carlton Dry is one of those 'Low Carbohydrate' beers thats marketed as having a smooth, dry finish. As a mass produced lager from one of the big Aussie breweries, this beer is quite nice after a hard days work. It is a crisp dry lager that tastes slightly better and is more refreshing than the regular Carlton draught. There is a slight sweetness to the initial taste but it's disappointing there is no hop flavour or aroma. Very watery mouthfeel that is typical of lower carb beers. A cheap man’s afternoon beer if you're looking for something to wet a dry, parched mouth after a long days work.

Team Aussie is my favorite here! Great to see what you drink Down Under! Not a fan of macros lagers though. Did you come by any craft lately?
Yes. Plenty of crafts. I generally review what I last drank and this is what was bought for me over the weekend. My last review was a nice mid-strength craft called Rogers Beer. Thanks for reading. More to come.
Add the tag beersaturday. Detlev is running a competition ,😉 . I have only posting key right now on esteem.
Yes, he is....
.... and I found the beer post as I smell them....
I don't mind and ice cold Carlton Dry. I actually quite enjoy it if I'm not looking for a heavy lager, and just want a nice clear and crisp cold one. 2.5 out of 5? Tough customer 😜
Its not bad. I grade it as an average drop. Middle of the road. It seems more popular than I had first thought though. Thanks for reading.
I don't mind a Carlton Dry every now and then Scotty. Nice review mate - crisp and fresh! SK.
Thanks SK. It's not a bad drop for every now and then.
Carlton Dry is not bad but I prefer Carlton Draft 😁👍. Nice post once again scooter77 👌

Not a bad drop. I got into Great Northern when I was in the NT a couple of weeks ago. You should do a review on it...Not until you've done the appropriate amount of product research though.
