Carling tastes like water with the faintest taste of beer. Hopefully the other one can’t fail to be improved with that
Carling is ok but that’s because I’ve never bought one in my life. Always had it for free at a party etc
Disappointing isn’t on the menu if Carling is the standard
Praise the man who devotes his life to this kind of research.
… and?
We’re expecting a matrix with results and a PowerPoint slide deck.
May I ask that you do a review of baked beans? There are many varieties with different prices and bean to sauce ratio.
It would be a great service to us here.
You’d be better off comparing the viscosity as you pour them down the sink
Don’t judge a can by it’s design. Or don’t even try because if you’ve gone down this route you’re not there for the taste.
Carter’s is plucky enough to use the word “Quality”.
I dont think I have drunk Carling since I was 17.
But a serious question.
What is it you like about Carling over other lagers?
Loads of people do, it was the most popular beer in the UK for years, so you are very much not alone and I am the one in a minority.
I’ve found Aldi beers are ok if you arent comparing them to the one they are pretending to be.
I don’t think this experiment has a large enough sample size to qualify as science. You need at least 5 of each, and a Buckfast as a control beverage.
Imagine taking something terrible then wanting to create a low quality version of it.
3.4%… you might as well drink water.
Carling Premier was a good pint, but i can’t drink the original. Same as Fosters, Fosters ice was a nice drink, the original is shite.
Why would you copy Carling? Ffs
I always thought Carters was their version of Coors, purely due to the fact it has a mountain on the can.
Anyone else genuinely waiting to see what the verdict is?
Never bought Aldi/lidl copycat beer, but with my go-to beer, Stella (I know I know) decreasing the strength, and upping the price 50% in 2 years for a 4 pack.. I’m tempted to take a trip 😄
“It’s good, but it’s not quite Carling?”
You like Carling. I’m sure you won’t taste any difference between these or whatever slop Tesco churns out as their cheapest lager. /s
Are they both weak as piss?
Ah, yes- shite versus worserer shite…. who will win????
People laugh at Carling and then order a Madri
Research paper title. Brewed for disappointment: which is less likely to taste like piss?
Well, you can’t get a shittier beer than Carling, so you’re on to a winner xx
Is it a race to see which goes down the sink quicker?
Back in the day, Carling used to sponsor Reading Festival and they ran a cold beer amnesty. You could exchange a warm crate of any brand of beer for a cold crate of Carling. I stupidly left my Stella baking in the tent all day in the summer sun. The cans were literally hot to the touch, but I managed to exchange them for ice-cold Carling. Worst decision I ever made.
Who in their right mind imitates the worst beer on the market ?
On this note, what’s the reinbacher and steinhauser supposed to be?
Pretty much the only alcoholic drink I actually /like/ the taste of is Strawberry & Lime Cider. And my preference is Alska > Rekorderlig > Koppaberg. Alska & Rekorderlig are close, but Alska wins out on price. Koppaberg seems quite bitter compared to the other two, which are very sweet.
Are they both the same abv?
This entire comment section makes me wish my eyes were made of wood
You need to treat yourself better than this.
I’ll drink pretty much anything. But I just refuse to drink carling, it’s just genuinely awful. The knock off is probably better
Self-hatred isn’t science. It’s art.
Carling premier was amazing. Black label is not.
Need a can of cold piss there too as a control
The only good thing about Carling black label were the adverts with Stephen Frost.
Aldi do a great job of imitating the named brands, so I’ve got high hopes that it will taste awful, good luck!
Reddit loves to hate Carling but I’m right there with you. So is the rest of the UK, given it’s been one of the top selling lagers for years.
The knock off version tastes like Carling at first, but then leaves a weird aftertaste in your mouth.

All beer at [Didldidi](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_7jVLp-n9ww) is absolutely undrinkable.
It’s not from the UK. It’s Canadian.

WELL
OP? Gonna answer tomorrow mate? Cos if carters just as good then u have a new beer to buy lol
That looks like Carling and Coors light had a baby.
Should have gone with San Miguel and then San Marcus
I too enjoy piss water and more pissy pisswater that tastes like even pissier piss
Carling is like having sex in a canoe, it’s fucking close to water.
I’m not even religious. But I’m pray for soul
UK subs and being total beer snobs, name a more iconic duo
