Bottle. Pours a weak gold color with a faint white head that is gone quickly. Aroma is grass and corn. Taste is kind of watery but decent. Very light body. Very easy to drink. Bought this as a single, wasn’t disappointed. Drinkable over AB products.

ersma: kein kauf beim haus der 131 teuren biere oder sonstwo, ein direktimport einer freundin, die beim irk arbeitet und daher viel rumkommt. mitelblonde farbe, mittelfeiner und -stabiler schaum. geruch ist hopfig, leich süß. antrunk erst leicht, dann schnell würzig, hopfig, mit typischer süße. mitte deutlich hopfig-süßlich. der abgang gestaltet sich süßlich, aber mit verstreichender zeit zunehmend herber. ausgewogen, wenn auch nicht der hammer. flasche ist mit elefant auf etikett natürlich sehr nett. bei mir steht auf dem halsetikett auch noch "kenya tusker cup 2005", mit fußball darunter. fazit: ein durchschnittlich gutes lager.

Decent clear golden pour with pillowy head. Decent biscuity cereal and watery notes on aroma, and similarly reflected in taste. Light watery cereals are evident but there are some surprising fruity pebbles touches...ok. Overall its what could be expected, but not bad for what it is.

Golden colored brew. Sweet aroma and flavor, grainy, some malts. Dull brew.

Bottle at Disney World Pours a light golden clear body with white head. Aroma is very faint rice and wheat. Has a mild body and flavor is lacking. It was an okay beer but mostly just because it was from Kenya.

Bottle at home. Refreshing with corn smell. Very different than Southern African beers with sweet finish. Decent.

Very light golden in color, clear. Very little aroma. Not too good. Definite off flavors (butterscotch/diacetyl mainly)and not too great of a beer even without the off flavors.

It’s not bad, but it is not good either, your typical macrobrew lager, just this time it if from Kenya. Slightly sweetened maybe by corn flavors.
