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.

Pours very pale gold with a thin foamy head that has decent retention. Aroma is grass, fermenting hay, skunked hops, sweet grainy malt. Flavor is better than the aroma grass, toast, sweet grain, still rather skunky and kinda funky in a bad way a little salty too. I wouldn’t recomend it at it’s "premium import" price.

"No mon." I think the fact that it comes in an old medicine bottle doesn’t sit well with me either.

Golden, sweet & malty, apparently it’s not as good here in the states, or so I hear. Not bad though, a little skunky, not terrible, but certainly not amazing. Try it for yourself. Cheers!

Bottle. I hope that we have all had a red stripe. We know what it is all about. Very clear pour. Aroma is weal malts. Not a whole lot in terms of flavor or body. Just not a good beer

My goodness this is the most shocking lager in the world taste wise. Absolutely revolting, it disgusts the palate in more ways than I can describe. It has a half decent appearance thats all I can say in its defence! Its shocking that people drink this, especially kids!

Can, on the beach, Antigua Cold, refreshing but utterly characterless mass production lager. Great beach bar service though
