Windhoek Lager

Brewed by Namibia Breweries
Style: Pale Lager
Windhoek, Namibia

Bottle @ SAf restaurant Tjing Tjing. Pale golden, disappearing white head. Aroma of malts and grass. Taste is a little malts and some hops, a bit grassy. Very clean, thin lager, very refreshing. Dry finish.

Bottle, The Cave. Yellow colour, medium white head. Aroma is malty. Flavour is sweet malty, caramel. Fairly bitter.

[Bottle from Søren bought in Maputo.] A bad botle from the south. Should try anotherone, ’cause they are better. Weak hops, soap and metal leads to a dry end.

Had this one during my holiday in Australia april/may 2009. This one in Hong Kong on the way back. In a beer bar :) Golden colored brew. Sweet aroma. Sweet, crispy flavor. Refreshing.

light golden, white head with big bubbles. my sample was somewhat skunked. slight butter in the flavor, that was about all this one had to offer.

The best thing to say about this is that you have tried a beer from Namibia. Showed they are minnows at the cricket caper not long ago, same goes for their brewing prowess.

Canned 0,33L. Dense and abundant foam, much lively and friable. Good persistence and adhesion. Yellow pale color, bubbly and diamond. Light alcohol and malty scent, light herbaceous notes. Fresh taste, pungente and little bitter. Watery and light in the end. Thanks to Stefy for this beer!

Can labelled "Windhoek Draught". (Had the same abv and fits the description.) I needed a lift after being bumped off a flight (thank you Emirates) and sent to a Nairobi hotel to cool my heels for 24 hours. Can’t say this did the job. It’s a very pale gold with a tall head that left some spackled foam. However, the aroma was a nasty mix of sulphur and eggs, with musty corn thrown in for bad measure. Moderate carbonation and typical lager body. On the tongue, it’s oversweet and a bit buttery but underhopped. Not a patch on their excellent Urbock. (Panari Hotel, Nairobi)
