This beer tastes like dirt! Really, dirt. I looked at the bottle and it was bottled in Kenya--that means they’re probably using Kenyan water. With dirt in it. Really, I’m surprised I didn’t get cholera from drinking this. I immediately regretted my decision to order this, but I finished it, cursing Kenya Breweries all the way for putting this in a 16oz bottle. This is the worst beer I have ever had, on account of the dirt flavor. It might have been decent otherwise.

Not bad, middle-of-the-road. Pale gold, bready aroma predominates. Malt-dominated palate, a little too sweet. Better when served ice cold.

500ml bottle: Poured a very pale yellow color lager with nice foamy with head with better retention then expected. Aroma of malt and hops are very faint and almost non-existent. Taste is refreshing with some malt and very little hops. The surprising thing about this one is that it is not skunk even though is traveled 5000 miles in a light brown bottle.
