very light color, thin head, I’m sure it wil be very refreshing in the hot savannah in kenya, but it would be not smart to drink bier on that spot with all the wild animals,. here in holland with 33 celsius its refreshing but most: very boring with less taste.

Light yellow colour, with a white foam. Aroma of malt and chocolate feeling in the nose.Mild hopynes in the end. Watery taste, thin body, short finish. Disapointing.

Robe blonde très pâle transparente surmontée d’une mousse blanche épaisse qui persiste. Arômes inexistants. Saveurs de métal et de céréales. Houblon de soutien. Comme de l’eau!

To start with the bottle was slightly out of date and of course spent prob the majority of its life in non-ideal conditions. Half liter bottle poured with minimial white quickly dissipating head to a pale straw color. No detectable hop aroma and some vegetal, staling aromas discerned. Taste is watery with the stale vegetal taste. Might have been refreshing if it were fresh. If I can get a hold of another fresher example I’ll re-rate.

Light gold body with a large white head that diminishes quickly. Bland aroma of corn and light malts. Fair taste and body, some minimal hops and malts are evident. Clean ending, though that should be expected from a beer that’s mostly waterl.

Light fruit on the nose. Pours freakishly clear with a white head that is gone ... now. Mouthfeel is thin and flavour is insipid and a bit carboardy, although there is a tiny bit of mild fruit in there that adds something, but not much at all. Disappointing.

Not bad, not great. Malt hop balance wasn’t bad, but everything else was just a tad below an average beer. Neat to have one from Africa, but other than that, this isn’t worth seeking out at import prices. Refreshing light beer with more flavor than American swill.
