Likely the last of the Caribbean area beers I will rate on this cruise, this 11.2 oz can of Banks was bought in Antigua. I am drinking directly from the can, no choice in that. Tough to get a proper nose on this brew, I can only say it seems quite similar to the other lagers from the West Indies. With a good, full drink there is no real surprise here either. Grain, a slight amount of citrus, crackers and just a bit of hoppy bitterness. Middle of the pack for pale lagers perhaps, I am fortunate to have had access.

330ml sampled at home, sourced from Bottlestop, Bramhall. Pours clear mid golden with a loose white head. Aroma: light grains, cardboard, grassy, straw, hint of lemon. Taste: light to moderate sweet, maize, light grassy hop. Light bodied, fairly light carb, light sweet grassy finish. Probably drinkable on a hot day, just about

Sampled from 0.33 l bottle from 'Rudat', bottled in June 2017. Clear, golden with a thin, frothy, slowly diminishing, white head. Sweetish, slightly grassy and a bit skunky aroma of grains and some straw. Sweetish, minimally bitter, slightly grassy taste of grains, some cardboard and hints of straw, followed by a short, moderately bitter, slightly grassy and a bit metallic finish. Thin to medium body, slightly effervescent mouthfeel, soft carbonation. Not very good.

Clear yellow with almost non head. Aroma is lots of peas, some not too bad hop character of some grass and meadow, some paper. Taste is sour and strange sweet. Drinkable, a bit too musty. SinH4 said it well.
