Blue Marlin has been swimming in our market since 1990. Released as a strong beer with a 6% alcohol content, Blue Marlin was rapidly caught and became a very familiar brand to Mauritians and consumers overseas.

Bottle from Beers of Europe, drunk at home. Clear lager yellow, lots of fizz, hefty white head. Standard look. Aroma’s a bit better than expected: some orange peel and pear with some hay. Taste is sweet and the alcohol, even at 6%, is a bit brash. More fruity notes on the bittersweet finish. Soft carbonation which doesn’t really work. A drinkable lager for sure, and better than I expected, but I doubt I’ll be having this again.

330ml bottle from Beers of Europe. Clear golden colour with a small foamy white head, retention is ok. Aroma: grainy, pale malt, grassy, cardboard. Taste: grainy, grassy, corn, initially lightly sweet but with a light bitter finish. Cardboardy aftertaste. Not a good lager.

Can shared in Watford - cheers to Matteo! Pours clear pale yellow with a slim white foam head. Light cereal in the nose, pale grain, hints of paper. Light to medium sweet flavour with more pale grains, lemon rind, cereal, white bread. Light bodied with average carboantion. Lightly drying on the finish, with more crispy cereal, light bitter hay. Nice lager.

Can thanks to Matteo. It pours clear gold with a small white head. The aroma is sweet, grainy, paper and corn. The taste is sweet, bitter, grassy, grainy, cheap white bread, some raw alcohol boost and straw with a dry, vaguely alcoholic finish. Light - medium body and fine carbonation. Taste is better than aroma for sure. Not great.

Bright clear gold beer, bubbly off white head. Light palate, dry, decent carbonation. Dry grainy pale malts, some paper. Mild citrus hop, more than I was expecting. Dry crisp finish. About what you would expect.
