Bottle 33 cl. Courtesy of nimbleprop. Pours a cloudy yellow with tiny impurities and a white head. Medium body, sweet clean malts with discreet flowery hops. Very subdued hops. Apart from the ABV this is surprisingly true to style. 230212

Imaena (848) - Atlanta, Georgia, USA - JAN 6, 2013
Bottle. I lived next to Sierra Brasserie in Kilimani Nairobi for a few months and had this on numerous occasions. Thin, wispy under hopped flavor, and generally uninspiring...but better than the Kenyan Brewing Co. macros.

Jimthechap (1195) - Christchurch, NEW ZEALAND - MAR 21, 2012
Light lager colour with a coarse white head that rapidly fades into bugger-all. Aromas of German pilsner malt and little else except dishwashing liquid. Flavours of juicy banana, lemon and light malt. I’d imagine another time and place beer which would be ideal in the heat of Eastern Africa. Here in New Zealand it is a mild lager (albeit well fitting in the Dortmunder style) without a great deal of character.
