I would assume you're using the "-rt" library, if your loop iterated the
correct number of times.
I believe that, even in the "-rt" library, that the JSTL does not create
scripting variables, just scoped variables in the application, session,
request, or page.
If you want to print out the value of the string, then just do this:
<c:forEach var="genre" items="<%= utilBean.getGenres() %>">
<c:out value="${genre}"/>
</c:forEach>
Even better, if you use the non-rt library:
<c:forEach var="genre" items="${utilBean.genres}">
<c:out value="${genre}"/>
</c:forEach>
