Bottle on holiday. Clear golden color, white head. Aroma and flavor are malts, nicely bitter and fairly crisp. Still is my go to carribbean lager I'd say.

Bottle while on holiday in St. Lucia. Brown to dark brown colored beer, average sized head. Aroma and flavor are malts, roasted malts, some chocolate notes, heavier on the bitterness than the other stouts I've had over here. Okay.

Bottle bought in Souffriere town somewhere, St. Lucia. Tried at the resort together with Laura. Brown color, medium sized light brown colored head. Aroma and flavor are malts, somewhat sweetish malty, a little hint of liquorice. Other than that fairly hard to describe. Perhaps a little bit of powdery milk chocolate. Average body and carbonation. Not bad.

Bottle on holiday shared with Laura. Pink color, bubbly off-white head that's gone quickly. Aroma and flavor are sugary, sweet and some apple notes. A bit firm carbonation. Soft tart hint perhaps. Okay.

Bottle on holiday. Clear golden color, white head. Aroma is malts, cardboard, grainy. Flavor is similar, hayish grainy. Somehow most of these carribbean lagers are less tasteful than Carib, which has some kind of twist to it. Brasa in Curaçao has that too but the other layers I've tried so far are all sort of alike: malts, cardboard, hayish grainy and bitter. In the sun tough, that's probably all you need.

Bottle from Rams Supermarket, Bay Road at my hotel in Basseterre. Aroma of dark chocolate, roast, light coffee and vanilla. Definitely has more bitterness to this one.

Bottle at my hotel bar in Basseterre. Straight from the bottle as is always the way here so no idea what it looks like. Aroma is cocoa powder, fudge, milk chocolate. Pretty sweet but pleasant enough.

Bottle in that slightly dodgy drinking area by the bus terminal in Basseterre, St Kitts. One thing I like about this area is there’s chickens wandering around everywhere. Like pidgeons where I’m from. They’re literally just running around everywhere. Anyway, I wasn’t even going to bother ticking this but everyone around is so why not. Trouble is it kinda smells like piss around here but that’s not the beer’s fault. The beer is shite though. You’re better off with a Carib.

Rated from a bottle on my hotel balcony bar though tried a couple of times before around here in Basseterre, St Kitts. Smell wise it’s certainly nothing to write home about, but taste wise it’s ok, I’ve had way worse in my travels. High praise? Yeah probably. If you’ve just ticked one that was bought to your home country then you’d likely think it shite. The blue light in the photo makes everything look worse than it was. It’s actually quite a nice spot.

Sample courtesy of Grumbo, cheers Graham! Clear pale golden colour, big foamy white head that quickly dissipates away and aroma of apple, pear, skin. Taste is sweet, appley & peary, some skin and core, sugary, with alittle tart acidity. Medium bodied, high carbonation, sweet finish. Quite OK.
