First brewed in 1938.
It is a light alcohol drink with not too strong bitterness but rather soft taste; therefore, it's easy to drink it up.

Bottle. Huge creamy off-white head that mostly lasted. Good display of lacework. Clear pale yellow color. Aroma of mild grass and cardboard. Also sweet corn, caramel and floral notes. Light bodied with an average carbonation and light dry texture. Light bitter and sweet flavor. Light dry and bitter finish. Quite refreshing I thought but nothing spectacular at all.

I think this beer is very similar to ther mass produced beers. There’s almost no head, the flavor is rather bland, and the aroma is very much lacking. I’ll never buy another one. Too many other good beers out there to be wasting my money on stuff like this.

i am pretty impressed with this beer. gave it a try at a bar i frequent, and had a few more. seems like a beer that is best once in a while. i wouldnt buy ti to keep at home. refreshing, though, probably best as a summer thirst quencher.

Light yellow beer with thin white head. Aroma is typically lager, slightly musty and metallic and hint of sweet malts. Flavour is very light but luckily there is some malts in the beginning. Lot of carbonation with thin body makes this very light to drink. Tasteless and watery lager and I can’t find positive things at the finnish winter; maybe under the caribian sun the Red Stripe could be offer something more?

24oz bottle. Pours a clear golden color with a fizzy white head. Malt, corn, grass, and weak hop. Taste of malt, corn, grass, honey, and I swear there were some hops in there. Light, watery mouthfeel as expected. Crisp, light, and refreshing. It’s not good by any means, but It’ll get the job done.

Bottle. Pours a light gold with flowing bubbles. Not much there, some sweet corn. Refreshing brew.

Bottle. What can you say. OK for a pale lager. Light, crisp clean, refreshing. That is what they are for, not much taste to speak of. Hooray!
