For 80 years Red Stripe has embodied the spirit, rhythm and pulse of Jamaica and its people. Eugene Desnoes & Thomas Geddes really started something special in Kingston back in 1918. Barley malt and the finest Yakima hops were combined with lots of island attitude to give Red Stripe its now world famous easy taste. Enjoy the Jamaican easy vibe.

Bottle. I can’t believe, I haven’t rated this one sooner. Watery, not much flavor. Sands beer from the Bahamas is a better beer. But, I had it in Jamaica, and it added to the whole Jamican experience. Wouldn’t drink it here again but would love to drink it there.

Wow, what a great tagline for a beer, In other words, "we used crap ingredients, and adjuncts so it wont taste like anything and you can get bamboozled without having to worry about tasting any of those nasty things"
