I really havent had too many beers but for what i have tried this is my favorite. The taste is perfectly round and not too harsh on any extreme. The hint of lemon is a great addition as well. One of the most thirst quenching beers i have ever tasted.

Pours a opaque yellow color, with a white head. Rich malty flavor, with hints of hops and fruits in the aftertaste. Well rounded lager. Medium bodied finishes clean.

Pours an uninspired pale yellow with a medium white head. Very light aroma of buiscut dough. Flavor is a wonderful cereal with a hint of apple. Palate is medium light, going down smooth and very drinkable. Could drink 2 or 3 without loosing interest. re rating this beer, as it has become of my favorite of the style.

I love this stuff, every time I go to Kenya, I make sure to drink as much and stock up as much as I can, its an African Lager, just enjoy!!!! Update! I have just received a few cans and bottles straight from Kenya!!! **DISCLAIMER** Yes I know that most people won’t like this, but I travel to Kenya a lot and this is a seriously good beer by their beer standards...

I think this beer is getting a bad wrap from most of the posters. I find that it is extremely refreshing and quite satsifying. There is not one specific thing that stands out to emphasize this beer as a premium lager, however, it does have a great taste, and the last time I checked, taste in a beer is the most important thing! Try this on eon a hot summer day and you will enjoy the refreshing taste of Tusker.
