Red Stripe Light is D&G’s alternative to the original. It has a smoother taste, and besides having a lower alcohol content, it is also ’less’ of a beer as it comes in 10.5 oz. bottles.

Bottle. This beer is awful. Yellow color. Some head that goes away quickly. Not much aroma. Tastes like hay.

Bottle thanks to Elon pours out crisp clean straw topped with a white head. Nose is a touch of grain and some grass. Taste is more of the light grain grass.

Sample, thanks to Grumbo. Hazy pale gold with a worrying amount of sediment floating around. Sweet malty fruity aroma, taste is fizzy, fruity, some pineapple hints.. bit of an odd one.

2/10/2021. Bottle received via Poland courtesy of Marek. Pours clear pale golden with a frothy white head. Aroma is sweet, fruity, malt, grain, slight veggie edge. Medium plus sweetness, light bitterness. Light body, average carbonation. Not bad, probably better in Caribbean sunshine than on a rainy day in England.

Yellow color with minimal foam. Light taste with crispness and a slightly dry finish. Similar to the regular Red Stripe.

Certainly lives up to it's high rating. Some off taste of fakish malt with plenty of water. Pours clear yellow. Slightly off aftertaste. Cloying.

Bottle shared by a friend, medium sample. Clear yellow color, short frothy head. Aroma of a bit grainy malt, slight grassy notes, bit rice. Soft bitterness in taste. Refreshing, especially when served cold on a hot summer day. Not bad at all actually.

Bottle. Skunky barley malt and straw aroma. Golden yellow with large white head. Lightly sweet barley malt and mildly bitter herbal straw flavor. Watery body. Met my expectations.
