Red Stripe

Brewed by Desnoes and Geddes (Diageo PLC)
Style: Pale Lager
Kingston, Jamaica

A slight variation of an American macro lager. Pale yellow color with quickly disappearing white head. I main thing that sets this beer apart from its competitors is the bottle.

12 oz stubby bottle from Roth’s. I have not had this since our 10th anniv in Jamaica. Well before i started drinking craft beer. So not likely this is going to be as good as i recall lol. Pours a clear gold with a large head, Nose of subtle corn and malted barley. Quite nice actually. Taste is a typicaly pale lager but a bit better than most. High carbonation. Good backyard beer.

Hate beers that look like someone peed in my glass. Stings the nostrils and the back of the tongue. Only reason it’s this high is their excellent slogan: Hooray Beer! Cept this isn’t beer.

Pours a clear lemon yellow with white head that dissipates to a thin layer. Aroma is light and citrusy. Flavor is extremely light hops with light citrus notes. Body is light with medium carbonation. If you want a cheap summer/party beer, buy it.

Had it at the Carribean fest in Windsor Ontario. Pours a yellowish/light brown colour with a large white head. I was eating it with Jerk chicken and rice, so it went wonderful with the combination. This beer has a nice malty aroma with a sweet taste. I also liked the stubby bottle...

Bottle. Clear yellow colour with large creamy white mostly lasting head. Malty aroma. Sweet flavor.

light flavour. what does exist is kind of pleasant. aroma is pleasant as well. stubby bottle is outstanding. 1 appearance point should go toward that.

Bottle pours a clear golden yellow with a decent white head that fades quickly. Aroma is mostly sweet and malty, flavor is light, crisp, and clean. I’ve had this years ago and didn’t like it (from the bottle), but it was decent this time (in a glass).
