Trolleo (6614) - Manchester, Greater Manchester, ENGLAND - AUG 20, 2021
UPDATED: AUG 20, 2021 Malty, sweet with some bitterness, light caramel and herbal hops, not horrible actually.

GuideDogSaint (2760) - Xiamen, CHINA - JUN 18, 2021
UPDATED: JUN 18, 2021 440ml can from Sainsbury’s, Carshalton. Pours clear golden with a white head. Aroma of malt. Sweetish malt and corn taste. Bittersweet finish.

LagerGuide122 (803) - - NOV 9, 2020
UPDATED: NOV 9, 2020 440ml can brewed in England at 4%. Very pallid clear gold with a smallish fair-duration head. Faint sweet cheesy pong. Not a good start. Moderate carbonation. Very little taste; again, faintly cheesy (yeast?) with a really blatant glucose syrup finish. Some artificial-tasting hop tang might appear in the aftertaste (or if you burp). Just plain bad - exactly as the popular opinion of this lager might suggest. Tastes like wet cardboard. Some people must like it, though, I suppose...you'll know after a few mouthfuls one way or the other, that's for sure!

UPDATED: SEP 22, 2020 High carbonated. Sweet tasting when first poured into the mouth but I found it had a metal iron after taste almost as if it was a similar taste to blood after you’ve sucked a small cut on your self . Large head when poured. Smells of wet socks. Very average lager.

UPDATED: JUL 15, 2020 Foster’s lager is an internationally distributed brand of lager. It is owned by the international brewing group AB InBev, and is brewed under licence in a number of countries, including its biggest market, the UK, where the European rights to the brand are owned by Heineken International.

dragnet101 (2331) - Birmingham, West Midlands, ENGLAND - JUN 15, 2020
UPDATED: JUN 15, 2020 440ml can. Pours a clear pale gold with small white head; decent start. Aroma of light malts and metal; not good at all. Taste of light malt and grain with occasional metallic notes; oh dear. Medium carbonation and watery body but not excessive for a pale lager; fine. Easy to drink and could be refreshing on a hot summer day but you can say that about most commercial lagers. Not great.

RobPhilipson (210) - - JUN 12, 2020
UPDATED: JUN 12, 2020 Definitely on the lower end of the cheap lagers. Not good, but also doesn't make me physically gag. Decently refreshing if it's a hot day.

RickyDizzle (7) - Basildon, - JUN 6, 2020 does not count
UPDATED: JUN 6, 2020 Excellent starter lager. Amber colour, decent lacing. Ideal session lager with your pals if aged 18-24. After a few years move on to something a bit stronger.

UPDATED: NOV 24, 2019 Honestly, who drinks this? Tastes like someone just squatted over my mouth and took a fat shite. Would much rather drink a similar alternative like Coors, San Miguel or even Stella at a push.
