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.

Golden yellow color with quickly dissipating head. No aroma to speak of. Tasted like cardboard soaked in water.

I like it for what it is. Pours with a large white frothy head that goes away post haste. Heavy straw color with what appears to be a ton of carbonation. Taste is refreshing albeit watered down. Other than the over carbonation it goes down quite well. Not bad for a cheap common pale lager.

Bottle from Kegs & Barrels in Plano, TX. Pours a straw yellow with quick fading white fizzy head. Aroma of light malt and noticeable hop, some what fruity aroma. Flavor of light malt, nice light citrus hop flavor. Mouth feel is light body with high carbonation. Overall, not a bad beer.

I don’t know, it was kind of a Milwaukee best, Busch Lite, But Lite, Blue Ribbonish kind of taste. I would drink the hell out of it if I was looking to get drunk.

Light and slightly hopped euro lager smell. Hyperactive bubbles small head and medium gold. Ever so slight sweetness, light hops, maybe alittle salt. Soda like mouthfeel. Decent lager if unimaginative.

After that last post, I would have to agree.......its really easy to get a blow job in Jamaica if you are drinking red stripe.

A friend of mine once had a toothless hag on a jamaican beach offer him a blow job in exchange for a red stripe. Draw your own conclusions...

A good brew for a pale lager. The aftertaste of this one is much smoother with less bitter tones than most. Good in a pinch.
