Carib Royal Extra Stout

Yes, I have reviewed a Carib product before. Yes, It was not too long ago. Last time it was the Carib flagship lager. This time I bring you the Royal Extra Stout from Trinidad.



This is a sweet beer best served at about 50 Degrees. I mean sweet. As in dessert sweet,but you can't fully appreciate the taste unless it's kinda warm. I would have bought more if the store had it. Sadly,there was but one left that I didn't take in hopes that they might get the hint and order more. Apparently,most beer people aren't fond of of the sweet beers. I don't know whether to feel unschooled or sorry for them. I like it just fine.

Carib

I have compared beer to Miller High Life in past writings. This is not because I hate the Champagne. I actually dig it when I'm feeling kinda poor but want the love only a bar can provide. It is true that it is about as cheap as my beer tastes go,and don't go that frequently. Miller created a good thing,and stuck with it,but there are also other companies that seem to want to stick to it too. Carib lager is one of those beers.



There really isn't much I can say about Carib that hasn't been said already. I first consumed it during my honeymoon to St. Maarten. It was cheap and plentiful,and Ingrid dug it. When I eyed it the other day for the first time in well over a year,a nostalic voice in my head told me to buy the 6-pack for $8.50...so I did. 3 days later and I'm still working on the six-pack. So it was well worth what I spent. It was also worth the memories of our island adventure. Now that Winter is soon to appraoch ,I need those memories as much as possible.
