Meaning
A popular sweet, dark Jamaican stout — richer and sweeter than Guinness — brewed by Desnoes & Geddes (makers of Red Stripe). 'Dragon' is drunk cold on its own and, like Guinness, blended into the creamy 'stout punch' or 'Dragon punch' with condensed milk. It carries the same 'strength' reputation as the other dark stouts, and its slogan 'di standback' plays on its potency.
