bottle. smells weak and bubbly. yellow beer with little to no head(white). tons of carbonation. very smooth pale lager. might be my favorite in that class. it has a slight skunky after thought but not bad. can drink a lot of these for the price. would rather drink this over Bud any day!

It wasn’t bad. I’ve been striking out with beers lately but this wasn’t a letdown. Pours a light pale colour with a white head. Tasted just like what was expected from a pale lager. I drank this out of a shaker.

Red Stripe is a good alternative to the bud/coors/miller alternatives. While there is a lack in taste when compared to good lagers, Red Stripe compares well to other cheap light beers.

Clear yellow color with a soapy white head. Minimal aroma of yeast.... Taste has some bitterness to it, but largely tastes like water. Pretty carbonated as well.

Standard lager... an uncomplicated beer with no notable distinguishing features. I like beer.

I had the priviledge of drinking this beer in jamaica so i knew i was getting the real deal. It pours with a medium to thick head that sticks around for a while. Has an okay aroma and a rather strong bitter taste. Finishes on the thick side and the flavor stays on the palate. This beer is one where you drink about 2 or 3 then get sick of it. Not an all day or night brew.

Went to a buddies party which somehow was sponsored by red stripe... couldn’t even give it away. clear golden color, frothy white foam, nose is corn all corn, flavor follows suit. not very good
