About Carib Beer

To all in Trinidad & Tobago, Carib is the best reason for beer.

Carib Lager is the authentic, original, unique and defining icon of being young, modern and fashionable in Trinidad and Tobago. Launched on May 16th , 1950, this full bodied, clear and refreshing lager with 5.2% ABV is the flagship brand of Carib Brewery and the preferred brew of Trinidad and Tobago.

Carib Lager is deeply rooted in the way of life of the Caribbean people, the environment, and the distinctive and refreshing culture associated with the region – its Carnivals, music and sporting events. The brand is fashionable and youthful and very today, just like the people it represents, a people with vision for and of the future.

This brand has stood the test of time and has grown from strength to strength both in the Caribbean region and internationally. Carib's vision is to become the most sought after Caribbean beer in the international market place. This will serve as a platform for achieving brand internationalisation.

Brand Positioning

In the Caricom Markets, the Carib Brand projects it's brand personality and values as being a premium, vibrant, world class, fun loving, young, refreshing beer targeted to young, sociable persons.

All the values held in the Caricom markets also hold true for the Non-Caricom (e.g. the French territories of the Caribbean) and International markets. However, variations to the target consumers in these territories allow the brand to project additional values such as being contemporary, aspirational and authentically Caribbean.

Essentially, the essence and core of the brand can be characterized as a refreshing and Premium Caribbean Lager, with strong values and a world-class quality.

The brand offers unique and distinctive benefits, which promises to offer the consumer a fun, desirable and exciting sociable experience. Its bold colours - yellow and blue, further reinforces the attributes of this dynamic brand and reflect the brand's world of blue sea and golden sunshine.

The Brand Positioning can therefore be summarized as "Carib gives you the best reason to enjoy beer and experience the unique essence of being Caribbean".

The brand positioning must be relevant to ALL of the territories where Carib beer is available.

In the Caricom markets where the Caribbean man is emphasized, the positioning translates into "Carib is the best reason for Caribbean beer". The very familiar tag line "Carib ...the best reason to enjoy beer" achieves this goal and best describes this positioning.

In the Non-Caricom and International markets where the brand primarily encompasses both the Caribbean visitor who desires to maintain his Caribbean identity and ex-pats who seek to experience the Caribbean, the positioning translates into "Carib is the best reason to enjoy Caribbean beer anywhere."

In these regions the tag line "Carib ...the Beer of the Caribbean" maintains that relevance and effectiveness.

Physical Taste Profile

Carib is a lager of European origin. It is a pale golden straw colour with a rich head formation. It is slightly aromatic, with a neutral balance between malt and hops, sweet and bitter. Medium-bodied mouth-feel leads directly to a semi-dry finish with only a hint of bitterness. No accented hop or malt character. Refreshing drinkability for a parched and thirsty palate. Diacetyl should not be perceived. Carib is brewed using sugar as an adjunct. The "clean label" policy applies i.e., no additives that have to be declared.
