Fine, but nothing earth-shattering. The only place I’ve had this was at Old Chicago, and it was prohibitively expensive (8 bucks for 22 oz., I think) for what was inside. Malty, firm, and passable, but more or less like Paulaner Munich Lager, and not exotic at all, really. I thought Africans made beer out of millet. Now that would have been cool!

I found notes from last years tasting of this African lager, which was part of ’international beer quest’ at a chain eatery. ’Middle of the road’ is the qoute that sums it up.

Bottle. Not much to say about this one. Really not much going on here. Like the last reviewer stated, this tastes like a typical US malt liquor, which is a style I don’t particularly care for.
2.2 AROMA 4/10 APPEARANCE 2/5 TASTE 5/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 8/20
Purchased at Hall’s, Colleyville Tx. Agree with everyone’s comments so far about this being better than expected, I really thought it’d be a drain pour. Clear gold pour, soft white head, fully receding. All malt aroma, some barely detectable lemon peel and orange, nothing offensive at all. Tastes much the same, but the alcohol is far too apparent. Finishes fairly clean, a little fusel alcohol clinging on. Palate thin, not much of a surprise there, but it made for an easygoing quaff. Not too shabby.

bouteille brune, j’ai vue de bière blonde au Canada pas mal pire que cette lager blonde classique, sans grande distinction mais très rafraichissante. agréable.

Pours dull and lifeless, with yellow food coloring and high carbonation. Flavor is typical skunk lager, with sour malt and lifeless hops. However, unlike most malt liquor/lagers, it’s not terrible.

UPDATED: AUG 26, 2006 Big Bottle. Poured light golden in color with tall (quickly dissipating) white head. What aroma was there was weak and a bit skunky. Nice beer considering. Malty and sweet with a bit of bitterness thanks to the above average level of carbonation. Probably won’t have it again. Old rating from way back.
