Smells like moisture, sweet moldy. Strong carbonation gives a pleasant bite along with a slight hoppy bitter. Finishes like buttered squash. Some carmel malt notes and light hops make this more interesting than the typical lager flavor. I’m not into lager, but this is defintely a satisfying session beer.

This really is a tropical island beer. Being from Hawai’i I do appreciate a beer that I can drink in the sun. However it is not a lite beer that should be labeled LITE. Does not lack flavor like real lite beers. However this is not exceptional in any way whatsoever. I would not opt for this over other options. Well maybe I would but it would be purely beer-snobbery which I am guilty of.

Like JasonGoz stated, if you lived in 90 degree weather you might appreciate how refreshing this lager could be. Add Red Stripe to your summer portfolio of beers. I doubt anyone would refuse a frosty Red Stripe marinating at the bottom of the cooler on a summer day. Despite the appeal of it’s refreshing delivery, there’s a funky finish with this beer I can’t quite put my finger on...

12 oz. Bottle in Lager Glass. Pale yellow color produces a fastly dissipating head. Aroma is non-existent. Flavor is very light and crisp and leaves a clean finish. Very mild aftertaste is pleasant. Great for a warm day
