Between the two beers which one do you think is best? I've not tried the Dragon Stout, but seems like it would be like a German Stout beer.

If you're a fan of Guinness or Newcastle, you will LOVE Dragon Stout -- it's extremely sweet, even for a dark beer, and it's got a nice kick to it, too!
Neither...
Dragon Stout Spitfire, the high test 10% alcohol version of Dragon. Mmmmmmmmmmm
Actually Dragon Stout is like the "Irish" Guinness Stout. Top fermenting Ales are from the UK, bottom fermenting Lagers are more common in Germany. I believe you were thinking of a Double Bock style lager popular in Germany.
Dragon Stout is an Irish/English style Ale
Red Stripe is a Pilsner style larger
Both beers are considered very good Caribbean Brewed Beers. However, adjuncts ( like corn or rice syrup ) are used to brew both beers.

You really can't compare the two like apples to oranges.
Dragon Stout is a heavy dark beer (I love it but due to the heaviness I can't drink too many or with food). Very comparable to Guiness or Killians and has more alcohol.
RS is a lighter pilsner which is more refreshing on a hot day and you can drink them all day long!!!!

Dragon versus Guinness......or Red Stripe versus Red Stripe Bold........or Red Stripe versus Kingston......

personally I think Dragon, Guinness and Red Stripe Bold are all great.......and of course Red Stripe is the old standby.....never had Kingston

I just wish they'd export DS to the US like they used to so I don't have to brew it myself, thank heavens they now sell Guiness FES here (the same Guiness sold in JA).
Technically the Dragon is different than Guiness as it's actually a milk stout - it contains (non-fermentable) lactose sugar like Lion stout does.
Lion Heart is no longer and sadly for me...we can no longer get Kingston Beer!
Ahhhhh a cold Dragon.....mmmmmmmmmmm
