A rather unremarkable mass produced tasting beer. But ... it’s from Kenya.

Bottle from the Cowley Road (Dodgy Deli). pale golden head that lasted throughout a sweet aroma, much too sweet tasting, soft edges to this and not that great really.

Straw colored beer out of the bottle with a fizzy white head and a light, sweet citrus nose. On its own, this is not a very interesting beer, with some buscuity malts and lemon mingled with cardboard and an odd metallic quality. It served its purpose as a quenching drink with my chili well enough.

A little white in another pale lager. Passable aroma. Light mouthfeel even a tad grainy rather than creamy and little taste. Macro type ale.A tad metallic mid-sip. Can drink it if thirsty.Fresh.More malty than bitter.Suitably carbonated. Passable overall rather than a standard macro.

A quickly diminishing head with consistent steady carbonation. I had three on a very hot day this summer, quite refreshing with a sweet finish. Stashed a few in the basement had em last week, ugh. sink beer. Freshness is certainly a factor. First impressions a factor in my rating.

Does not smell good at all. And frankly, doesn’t taste very good either. Funky and bad, it’s not real thin, just untasty. A new country for the list, but not a repeat.

Picked up this bottle at Harry’s, Alpharetta. Don’t really expect much... Kenya here I come. 12oz. bottle. Aroma of new leather shoes! Crystal clear yellow, white fluffy head. Yum, leather and corn nibblets. God awful and strange flavor of a roll of paper towels and salt, very unique.

Aroma’s of corn and malt.Pours light yellow with little head.Not much in the flavors but still better than the budweiser beers.Thin and watery with a slight bitter finish.
