Commercial Description:
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.

Nothing wrong with this beer at all. While it’s not very complex I find it to be very satisfying. It starts pretty average in taste but develops into a good malty flavor in the end. I prefer this from the bottle rather than a glass, and the only time I’ve had this that was good on draft was in London. There’s something that feels good about drinking a Red Stripe to me, even with all the recent really strong advertising for it.

Clear golden with medium short lasting head. Sweet aroma with notes of malt and corn. Sweet malty flavor with mild bitter finish.

Bottle. Small fluffy and quickly disappearing white had. Clear light yellow body. Weak corn like aroma. Flavor also very sweet and corn like with little hops bitterness, low carbonation and a short aftertaste. Watery weak, sweet and boring. Waste of time.

Nothing special but not bad or inoffensive in any way. Not bad but just really run of the mill, better than the big three though.

Pale, clear yellow lager. Tons of foam on the pour, but quickly goes away with the utmost haste. Smells like good malt with a kiss of hops like schlit, and a decent skunk like a good pils and kinda like Corona ( the beer more fine.). Decent lacing on the glass nonethless. Too bad the mouthfeel is extremely watery, even more runny than water itself. Decent hoppy bland finish. I could drink this if it was chilled to an extremely cold temperature and I was in Jamaica, land of the criminals.

This is a complicated specimen. On the surface there is nothing special about this beer - an aroma that is barely noticable, an appearance similar to that of any mass produced American lager and an almost non-descript taste to match. However, this highly carbonated adult beverage has one advantage, it’s from Jamaica

Typical watery lager. Not too much to say. Better then some, easy to drink, and good on a hot day
