Carlton Draught is a traditional, full-strength lager (4.6%), with a good malt character and smooth full-bodied flavour that is crisp on the mid-palate, while the clean hop bitterness gives this brew a slightly dry finish. Carlton Draught is renowned for tasting as fresh as it did the day it was brewed, so it is that kind of consistency in taste that is synonymous with the origins of the brewery itself, and has been important to Australians for generations.
