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.

Refrigerated bottle. Pours a clear light golden. Taste is corn malt and some hops. Aftertaste is cheap corn malt and a little metallic. I don’t like this beer and I won’t buy any more.

Yea mon, this beer sucks. What can I say? I drank a shit ton of this in Jamaica and it wasn’t that bad. Maybe it was all the weed I was smoking that made it taste alright. For a pale lager it’s not too bad. Pretty inoffensive and easy to drink lots of it on a hot day at the beach. And getting stoned first doesn’t hurt!

As far as crappy lagers go, this one is palpable. Pours a clear straw yellow with little or no head. Aroma is fairly non existent, slight sweetness. Taste is almost a tangy straw that is quite interesting. I kinda like it. Don’t have to think much with this one. Just throw them back. Yeah Beer!

Serving type: 330ml stubby bottle. Poured a very clear golden color, with about a 1/2" foam head. There was lots of carbonation from start to finish. For me this was like drinking pop. It went down very easy. I usually don’t like drinking beer with food, but this one I can see myself pairing with lunch.

Light golden color. Aroma is of malts, corn, hops. Flavor is of sweeter malts, Hops, and corn and rice. Leaves a malty aftertaste. Nothing impressive.

UPDATED: JAN 21, 2010 Okay, cool bottle, but poured in a glass the magic fades quickly; doesn´t smell much like anything, but slightly corn and some hops; light body, feels watery in mouth; flavor is very well hidden, but there can be found some corny maltiness and even hops in the finish. It´s clean and quite refreshing and there´s not bad taste in it so there are far worse choices if you´re in for... well I don´t exactly know what because as it´s price I still don´t find any use for it.

Pours a light golden color with a huge pure white head. Aroma is mostly hops. Light bodied and nicely carbonated. Average flavor for a pilsner style lager, nothing too special, but nice and crisp and clear on the finish. Goes down well with jerked chicken or pork, especially on a Jamaican beach.
