UPDATED: FEB 5, 2024 Pudel, ty maksim. Polnud üldse paha õlu, veits köögiviljane, aga muidu aafrika laagri kohta ikka väga korralik. Okish.

UPDATED: JUN 30, 2019 Very tasty. Medium to dark malts aplenty, some sweetness and good bitterness.

Rich red colour. Malty and molases taste. Stonefruit and toffee. Special occasion beer.

Pours a clear deep ruby red. Off white head. Malty aroma with prominent molasses notes. Full flavoured, fairly sweet with a warm alcohol feel. Very good winter beer.

330ml bottle (Tasting@Tide’s)
Deep red, small off-white head. Rich malty aroma, sweetish, some papery aspects. Full palate, rich, some sweet heaviness, but pleasantly carbonated. Rich sweet malty taste. No sign of alcohol, at least not at this stage of the evening. Pretty OK.

Bottle from a friend. Copper color, white head. Bitter taste with citrus, malts, toffee, nuts, syrup and earthy notes. Bitter finish with citrus, malts, nuts, nuts, earthy notes and toast. Good bock.

330ml bottle from a local store, BB end Feb 2018. Deep copper/brown colour with fine bubble & an off-white head. Aromas of caramel, molasses, fruit cake, cinnamon and burnt. Sweet tasting with a medium body, crisp finish and lingering alcohol warmth. True to style. A bargain at ZAR 17 a bottle.

Bottle at Beerhouse on Long. It pours clear deep red - brown with a thick beige head. The aroma is rich, sweet, brown bread, fruit cake, toasted brown sugars and toffee. The taste is smooth, sweet, brown bread, fruit cake, toffee, dried fruits, light spice, gingerbread and just a touch of alcohol with a spiced finish. Medium body and moderate carbonation. Drinks easier than it should. Great example of the style.

330ml bottle from local liquor store. Pours a clear garnet/deep amber with a tan head with very small bubbles and average retention. Aromas of molasses, coffee and dark fruits. Palate has a full body and medium-low carbonation. Flavours of burnt caramel, dark fruits and some spice with a coffee taste in the dry finish. Overall, well balanced and a great winter warmer, especially for a brewery as big as Namibian Breweries.

Mahognifarget klar med høyt beige skum. Lukter noe brent karamell, kandis og noe eddik. Søtlig sjokolade, brent karamell, eddiken kommer her også. Redd for at denne er dårlig lagret og blitt ødelagt. Legger meg på snitt
