Barbican is a well known brand of non-alcoholic drinks produced in Dubai, United Arab Emirates, that is available in a wide range of flavours. I bought the Barbican Strawberry Malt Beverage from a local Asian grocery store and decided to review it as part of my Around the World challenge.
The Barbican Strawberry Malt Beverage has a great appearance with a frothy top and golden color. There is immediately a strong strawberry scent and it's matched by the sweet fruity flavor here. The base drink has a subtle flavor of malt and hops but it's the strawberry that really comes through as the main flavor. That's not to say that the strawberry flavor is overpowering or too strong, it actually has a light flavor that is refreshing and not too sweet. Overall, I did enjoy this drink, and although I probably wouldn't buy it again, it's still worth a try if you like strawberry flavoured drinks.
