Beer of the Week Blast from the Past: Elephant Red

Beer score: 4.0

Company: Carlsberg

Here's another beer that's no longer around, though fortunately I've still got some of my notes about it.

It tastes like a premium "red" beer, like the many there were hitting the market in the mid-1990s. Too much fizz for my taste, and speaking of taste, it was full of a cheap sweetness. It definitely had a red color to it, but there was next to no head to it once poured. To my knowledge (and memory), this one only came in a can, for I never saw it in a bottle.

Not a great beer by any means, but also not the worst. Still, there's a reason some beers are no longer being brewed.
