Easy drinking style. Brewed using the best malted barley and soft bittering hops. Has a naturally, crisp, clean finish.

Medium gold clear under a medium size long lasting white head and rememant cobweb lace. Light sewer water and hops aroma. Thin flat mineral watery body. Almost tasteless with very faint hint of grain and cornsweet and some artificially citric flavours. Decidedly unrefreshing stale bitter and wet musty cardboard finish - does not even really quench your thirst.

One day Carlton will suprise everyone and make a beer that tastes of hops and/or malt instead of chemicals and adjuncts. They ain’t done that yet.

The taste of this beer is excellent for the price you pay per slab. Crisp and refreshing, great for hot summer days.

very weak to the taste, bought a case a while back, still got a lot of it, not really very good at all.

Some aroma & flavour. Pity it was’nt of either malt or hops. Probably of adjuncts or chemicals

Nothing wrong with this drop. A great alternative to the Tooheys Dry Ales.A very soft taste... but not lacking in flavour. Those who disagree obviously have been drinking dirt water (VB) for too long. Much better than Tooheys Extra Dry.

Distinct from other CUB products. It did have a crisp clean finish but was a little lean on the flavour and aroma.
