"The great balance of taste and refreshment". Britain’s best selling beer since 1971.

The "Black Label" has been dropped from the name in the UK. The brand, originally Canadian, was launched multinationally in the 1960s and since then ownership fell into the hands of different breweries in different countries. The original Carling O’Keefe brewery that developed this beer was purchased by Molson in the 1980s. Coors later purchased both Molson and the UK license holders Bass. Carling Black Label is still brewed in Canada

500 ml can. Clear golden with a big, creamy white head that lasts. A bit weak aroma of malt/grain and not much more. Flavor is mild malty with a light bitterness. Medium to thin body. Pretty straight forward beer, no misflavors. A decent, but slightly boring thirst-quencher.
