Red Stripe

Brewed by Desnoes and Geddes (Diageo PLC)
Style: Pale Lager
Kingston, Jamaica

Nothing good comes from El Caribe; flavor of candy soaked in water; similar to drinking straight carbonation.

Is it just me, or is Red Stripe (bottle) the palest of the pale lagers? Of course, once you’ve rated one cheap, widely distributed pale lager, you’ve rated ’em all. I’d put this one in the bottom third of that sort although there was really nothing offensive about the taste, just bland.

Am I really rating this? Well, yes I guess I did drink a red stripe... The nose on this thing is very weak. It has that typical rice/skunky smell. The flavors are not any better. Very old light and ricey. This is as bad as any domestic I’ve ever had. Cheers!

Pours a pale clear golden color with little head. Grain aroma, light flavor. Tick.

This is the only beer that I have ever experienced where I thought it was better to pour down the sink than drink. I opened the bottle and was immediately overwhelmed by the stench of gym socks and the taste wasn’t any better.

this beer is pretty average, not so bad, but not great either, its drinkable. cool bottles

330ml bottle.
pours a bubbly pale yellow. Fizzy head that looks like soap bubbles. Smells and tastes of sour apple juice and bad wine. Thin and overly carbonated feel. Yuck. Ugly beer.

Apple juice aromas, sweet malts, pretty much no sign of hops here. Pours light blonded with thin white head that last about 2 seconds haha. Sweet malts, apple skins, sweet but a little sour. It is a refreshing beer.
