Carlton Draught
Carlton Draught has been brewed for the pub trade since 1864 and stays close to the traditional Australian draught lager. Malt carries the middle with bread crust and a sweet grain note, and the body is full rather than thin. A clean hop bitterness arrives late and leaves the finish slightly dry, with a light herbal and floral edge in the aroma. Golden in the glass, crisp on the mid-palate, moderate in carbonation.
