12 stubby bottle, like the picture. This beer was a pretty big suprise. I wasnt expecting much but the carbonation and clean taste were pretty impressive! The aftertaste is nice too. I would get this more but it give me bad hangovers

Aroma is very thin and grainy. Smells of corn... Almost reminds me of watered down budwieser.

Gold pour with very small white head. Aroma of very light malt, dough and grass. Flavor is crisp with sweet malt. Clean finish to a beer that should be served cold.

Hooray beer! 33cl bottle, just like the pic. I drank this on the beach, Andros Island, the Bahamas. Maybe it’s the proximity to Jamaica, maybe it was the right place, whatever, but I liked this much better than I ever did in the states. Pale yellow with a white head. Sweet malty nose. Sweet grain flavors, light sweet malt. Medium soft body. OK, it’s still a ’Stripe...

reminds me of budweiser as far as being a very non-complex lager. usually a skunky aroma but every now and again you’ll find a freshy! yeast flavor that finish’s with a slight tang. Note: This is intended for the white sand beach’s of jamaica.

Light malt, yeast, metallic and skunky smell on a light yellow pour with a quickly diminishing head. Sweet malt, and skunky taste with some doughiness. Boring, crappy skunky lager. Worse than I remember. I used to like this, but after trying a couple hundred different beers my tastes have obviously changed and I don’t care for this any more.

watery, thin. subdued taste. bitter, little maltiness. somewhat floral. tasted like a beer, not too bad. I’ve enjoyed much better ones ones to waste, but don’t mind this one

Sampled single bottle from Cellar’s Wine & Spirits in St Paul, MN. Pours a clear, light golden yellow brew with a fast dissolving white head that leaves behind a clean top. Aroma of light bread dough and some grassy hops. Taste is highly carbonated, watery/light bodied with some sweet citrus flavor. Finish is smooth, crisp and clean cut. Nothing spectacular, just another summer lawnmower beer.
