See more Light Lagers

Chrome is distinguished from other Carling lagers by its low level of carbonation. Carling beer dates back to 1818, when Thomas Carling, a farmer from Yorkshire England immigrated to Ontario Canada and started brewing ale. In 1878, his sons, John and William, built a new six-storey brewery in London

Review and Tasting

Sampled on 04/11/2012

Appearance:

Clear, mid golden amber with quickly depleting white head and light lacing.

Aroma:

Hay, stale grass and rubber band-like nose is enough to put even the most parched off drinking.

Taste:

Light bodied and bland with almost no carbonation. What little flavour it has is far from tasty.

Aftertaste:

There’s an unpleasant note of bad cabbage about the finish. The fact that the brewer chose a clear bottle so risking light shock should tell you much about this shameful lager.
