Tusker Lager

Brewed by Kenya Breweries (East African Breweries)
Style: Pale Lager
Nairobi, Kenya

Bottle. High creamy lasting white head. Clear yellow thin looking body. Very sweet barley malt aroma with notes of corn and hay. Sweet malty flavor with little hops bitterness. Pretty watery. Low carbonation. Short aftertaste.

Pours light clear gold with a big white head. Aroma is cereal, sweet breads, corn. Very muted. Flavor is mainly corny sweetness with pilsener-ish grains, some hay and zero hops. Sticky and not refreshing. About what I was expecting from a Kenya pale lager...

Not too bad, though I admit that I was on vacation and not really taking notes. It was hot and the beer was refreshing. Pleasant though not memorable.

Pale golden of color with a white head. An aroma of cooked vegtables, weak malt and weak hints of hops. A flavor of malt and vegetables.

12 oz. bottle from The Party Source. Pours a clear gold, slightly cloudy, with a small white head that laces the glass. Faint aroma of straw, corn, grains, grass, malt. Flavor follows suit, with some sweetness. Mouthfeel is light and the first few drinks are really fizzy, like club soda but with smaller bubbles. Pretty similar to an American macro lager- drink it cold and it can be refreshing without being nasty or leaving anything positive in the memory, either.

It is what it is. Another international lager that is better than bud light, but tastes just like all the rest.

Decent start to the head--leaves some spotty lace. Clear, almost like water. Pale yellow color. Okay, the smell reminds me of pancakes--no syrup, no berries, just plain ordinary pancakes. There’s a slight skunkiness to the beer. Slightly sweet, lots of corn. Bland. So, the blandness continues in the taste. Is it Bud, is it Miller? It could be. Thin bodied and highly carbonated. Where’s the hop? The brewer must have waved it over the kettle without letting fall in. If you like corn in your beer, this should serve you well.

Bottle. Poured a pale yellow body with a fuzzy white head into a pilsner glass. Wheaty, malty aroma with some funky background. There are some faint sweet notes. Other than that the flavor is pretty much grainy, but not TOO bad. Thin body. Pretty much what you’d expect.
