It is a light alcohol drink with not too strong bitterness but rather soft taste; therefore, it's easy to drink it up.

Sweet corn, gold color, no head. Weak taste, faintly bitter. Oily, thin.

As far as mass-produced pale lagers go this is not the worst... but still, only average at best.

Tasted 2010-03-02. Bottle. Pours clear, light yellow (almost like tap water) with white head. No taste what so ever. I can get this cheaper and better just by turning the nob by my kitchen sink,

Pale Lager, nothing great, average...smooth taste with a bit more sweetness, easy to drink. Id prefer other pale lagers to this one though.

Pretty good beer. Bottle is oddly shaped, but still a very drinkable casual beer.

Bottled: Pours a rather pedestrian clear yellow with a fuzzy white head. Aromas of solvent with a bit of artificial floral scent. Flavor not really there: very watery, with a little sour solvent taste. Not an offering to the privy demons, but not one I’d buy again.

A watery, straw flavored beer that should fall under the "light" category. Just enough of a bitter taste at the end to make you cringe.

How sad is this? After all the dank beers I have enjoyed, Red Stripe will be my 100th F’N rating! Well, I made it to the 100 mark rating a mediocre lager that does have some taste, but not many other redeeming qualities. Everyone knows what this is and it is made for drinking--like water.

A drinkable beer. It has an interesting sweet cinnamon flavor. The watery light lager flavor is still there.
