Cape Cyan Natural Blonde
25 reviews
Cheap price and cheap taste. Not bad. 40$ carton but if you can get some good for extra 10-15$ go for it but if you want something cheap, get this one. It taste cheap bit i wake up ok but rivet taste better than this one but make you feel dehydrated at night. Show details
Poor glueing of cartons – Love the beer and the price. Packaging of cartons is poor at best, nearly every box the glue holding the sides in non existent and the carton splits open when manoeuvring it. Spend an extra $1 and glue properly
Best beer by far – Can get up the next day and feel good. smooth to taste and smell great.
Yuck. It has a chemical taste – Tried it a few times and though it was ok but occasionally I could taste something unusual. Then one day, having gone back to Tooheys New for a while, I tried a another bottle of the Natural Blonde and couldn’t finish it. It had a definite Chemical taste. I could be some type of additive being used. It went down the sink. I then grabbed another Tooheys and it tasted fine.
Disappointed – The first carton or two I bought of this beer it was okay. Unfortunately later purchases of this stuff have been very hard drinking. It has basically been flat, little or no head and in a word, awful! This has put me off Aldi beer for good. Makes me think that whoever is making their beer for them is exercising no quality control or else this… Read more
stuff would never have made it to the stores. It reminds me of a very poor attempt at a home brew. Who knows, maybe a later batch will be fine, but I for sure won't be taking the chance and buying any Aldi beer again.
Surprisingly good – 6x330ml pack: I'm no beer connoisseur, but this has become my new go-to. It's easy-drinking without tasting watered-down, refreshing and doesn't bloat be as much as other beers. I prefer it to a lot of craft or other specialty beers. Similar to a corona but better value; highly recommend. Show details
I love it...but found out it was 6 points on my weight watchers diet! – Well I went to Aldi and was surprised by the price...very cheap. The taste was great and it said " low carb". That was good enough for me. I then joined WW (Weight Watchers) to lose some excess weight. To my dismay, this beer was 6 points on their list....Full beer was 4 points! I then looked at the carbs of this " light" beer, and it was similar… Read more
to full strength beer. The alcohol content wasn't much less...but I cannot understand why it is 6 points. ( my daily food allowance is 22 points adjusted by weeklies from activities and no points foods). If I drank 2 bottles, that's 12 points out of my daily allowance. WW has a complicated formula for working out food (and drink) points. Please explain why.
Beer doesn't get any better at this discounted price of $30 – I tried this beer out of curiosity given the November 2021 discounted price of $30 since you cant find any other beer anywhere near this price. I had a sip. Hmmm. Not bad! And then a few more sips to be sure. Then I thought. Ahhh. That's a very pleasant, easy drinking beer. Typical blonde low-carb taste and typical NZ quality beer. Then I got a… Read more
couple of friends to taste it and they were equally impressed. One even asked me to grab him a case. I'm off to get another couple of cases myself whilst its still selling for $30. All I can say is be quick at this price!
Low lager taste for sure – It is the low end of lager taste. Won’t talk of the levels of carbs because , I grabbed it not for the cal level but trying something new. Won’t work for a lager sensitive tongue, will say not suitable to use for anyone who wants to introduce their mate who is NEW to larger because it doesn’t reflect the accurate taste of larger. Fair price for a huge party. Show details
Surprisingly solid – Bang for your buck, no problems at all with this beer. At just over $30 a carton it’s a pleasant surprise. Crisp and clean, with a slight European zing to it, think (Stella, Heineken). Rather have this beer than some of those wanky craft beers at double the price Show details
Ist try of this beer from Aldi and pleasantly surprised – This beer suits my palate. Everyone’s taste in all things is varied but for me I will buy this again Show details
Ist time try and enjoyed – My dad always said as long as you enjoy it that’s all that matters Show details
Taste like dishwashing liquid – Really doesn’t taste good at all. Cheap and a dishwashing liquid taste. Show details

I'm 66, and tasted a lot of beer in my time but, for quality and price this is by far the best! – I've been drinking this for a decade and wondering why more Aussies hadn't discovered it. It is lower carb, but that's not what attracted me to it, it's the unsurpassed tingling fizz of Summer that swirls in my mouth with the most pleasant and satisfying aftertaste. I think most Ozzie's steer away from it because it's cheap and comes from Aldi… Read more
but, let me tell you boys and girls there is nothing 'cheap' about this beer. A better, more thirst quenching summer beer you could not find and believe me, I've tried them all inc. all the craft beers. Go on ignoring it, you silly Ozzie's, that's good because it'll keep the price down and there will be more for me. Matter of fact wish I hadn't written this review now!
Don't be fooled – I shop at Aldi regularly and the quality of most products is good, which led me to try Cape Cyran, after I tried and was disappointed with Rivet. But as they say you get what you pay for, and like Rivet, Cape Cyran has the same taste and the identical Alcohol rating. I suspect, as a seasoned beer drinker that Aldi have just repackaged Rivet beer… Read more
in bottles and called it low carb and given it a nifty name. Budget beer and budget taste, if you want a cheap decent tasting beer from Aldi grab a six pack of Leo, Cape Cyran like Rivet is for the dudes that sit in the park who can't afford something decent. (cheers)
Fantastic beer! Perfect for beer enthusiasts – Ah, it is 34$aud a carton and is up there with coronas and asahi! Seriously this is fantastic for a mass produced beer. Great with mates or just for in the fridge. Show details
Easy going and no hangover – I have tried this beer for last 3 4 times. Very easy going without bloating and no or very less hangover. This is my new favorite beer. Cheers!
Disappointed in product – HI I have been drinking Aldi beer for the past 12 months and been quite happy , but last night I purchased a carton of natural blonde , when I opened the carton this afternoon I have found 4 stubbies half full I am not game to drink any of the other in case of a leak in the rest of the bottles and don't want to pick up a disease , is there anything you can do to fix this problem Ian may 2018
Good value, strength and taste – Tastes much like super dry ones. I don't care if it sounds silly but I add a lot of ice before bottoming it up. I love it.
Not low carb be warned !!! – The beer is not low carb. It's lower carb 33% is based on its high carb storm beer . If you compare the natural blond and pure blond brands. The natural blond has 3x more carbs. Don't be fooled !
Great Value – Very easy going session beer, not too gassy. A good low carb, cold filtered beer. Sells for around $30 carton.
Poor Packaging – Beautiful beer but the packaging of the 6 pack is very flimsy and bottles fall out of the side of the package / a more enclosed package would be better / I have smashed a few of the bottles due to the flimsy carton / cheers Gary

Bloody good value beer – This is my new go to brew. Perfect for a lazy summer arvo. Can't be beaten for value. Clean crisp flavour that never goes over the top.
Excellent product – it is a easy drink to consume a great price I would recommend this product to any one,go and buy a case today.you will not be disappointed.
Pleasantly surprised – This is a beer you can drink all day without it bloating you. It pours nicely, has a good head. It tastes like most cold filtered beers, and over Christmas I was finding that I was passing over other beers to drink this inoffensive beer. The one down side is that it tastes a little like it's been watered down. It's also cheap at $29.99 for x24 330ml bottles. Easy to drink, and very cheap Tastes a bit watered down.
