Anybody seen those stupid commercials for Red Stripe beer?

Anybody had a Red Stripe beer? Good or bad?

Good but not life-changing. I love the commercials, they're hilarious. Worth a try, but it's pretty much just another beer.

It's a big marketing ploy. Red Stripe is very remininscent of macro-brews like Bud, Michelob, etc. There's not much difference. I'm not saying it's bad. It's just beer.

To keep this thread from getting booted over to the non-topic forum, has anyone been on the Old Dominion tour? I think Old Dominion has some of the better regional brews on the East Coast and would like to visit the place- anyone know if it's worth going to?

Yes. Funny. Great way to get 14 year-olds to try to buy Red Stripe instead of Bud when they try to pass that fake ID.

Yes.

Good or bad?

Good, but not fantastic. A really good Caribbean beer is Presidente from the Dominican Republic, but I haven't found it here. Much better, though.

Norm's Beer and Wine in Danor Plaza, Vienna can probably accomodate that. It's a small store, but the staff are really knowledgeable and can order special items. Ordering beer from the Dominican Republic shouldn't be too hard.

Why not just buy some and find out for yourself?

It's decent, but tastes much better on a sailboat in the Carribean. -§

If you think it's nice there, try it while overlooking the town of Ocho Rios from the Blue Mountain range. Man, that was nice...

The topic is the questions you asked about Red Stripe beer and their commercials.

Because the topic of the folder this was originally posted in is "all things fairfax". Red Stripe beer has nothing to do with that.
