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.

The US market version is brewed at City Brewery’s Latrobe plant since 2012.

A really good thirst quenchener when cold. Easy to drink for it’s a bit roasty-crispy-dry finish. But quite average when not cold. Summerbeer.

35.5 cl bottle at a beer with food tasting. Pours clear yellow with a medium and quite nice head. Aroma of grass and barn. Light flavour and light body. Matches nice with very hot piri piri prawns.

0.33 l bottle from local supermarket. Head looks OK, not big, but enough. Appearance standard lager yellow with lots of bubbles. Well, this is a refreshing lager for a hot climate. Still, I found some hint of malts and hops in the taste. None of the annoying sweetness and not too watery. Quite OK when you are thirsty.

This beer had a vet mild aroma and flavor. I have mentioned a standard mass produced lager before. This is a little stronger flavor than that but still is very mild. ---Rated via Beer Buddy for iPhone

A fairly smooth light beer. Refreshing. However no strong flavors, aroma, and a non appetizing appearance

Aroma is bready. Pours golden with almost no head. Taste is mildly bitter with a slightly sweet finish but overall not much flavor. The body is thin and watery.

Att detta har blivit någon form av signaturprodukt för Jamaica är något som borde engagera både utrikesministerier och ambassadörer. Det borde ligga i alla staters intresse att slippa bli förknippad med halvmessyrer. Fråga Sverige som skickade Dr Alban att spela för tre åskådare i Sydafrika samtidigt som Jamaica skickar Red Stripe till tusentals törstande svenskar. Det är hårfint vad som är värst.

Aroma is weakly malty mostly. Little more flavor than expected. Sweet and bready malts and mild bitterness.

Lys gyllen farve med høyt skum som raskt forsvinner. Litt søtlig og lett bitter. Supermarked.

Clear Yellow, Good Head, Some Lacing. Thin, watery, tasteless and lightly sweet finish. Standard Lager, nothing good nothing terrible, nothing memorable. Good thirst quencher.The only going for it, it’s from JAMAICA, MAAAN.
