Bell Lager was the first Ugandan beer to be brewed in Uganda in 1950. It gets its name from the Port Bell pier where it is located along the shores of Lake Victoria.
It has been expertly brewed there ever since. It was also the first beer in Uganda to win the coveted gold medal in the international Monde Selection Quality award in 1992 and has consistently maintained its high quality standard from that time. It is currently Uganda Breweries Limited’s flagship beer and the number one premium lager in Uganda.

Bottle. Thanks to papsoe for this third rating from Uganda. Clear, pale golden pour, forming a white head. That was the best of it. It has a weak aroma, with hay, grain and some grass. Weak flavor as well, with hay, grain and malt. A very thin-bodied beer almost without finish. It probably goes down easily in the heat of Uganda, but I think they should have added some hops, and redused the amount of water. (070510)

(Bottle 50 cl) Courtesy of my colleague Jeppe who was kind enough to bring this with him back home - in his dirty socks... Pours a clear, pale golden with a dense, white head leaving some lacework. Good, malty nose. Very thin and watery though with basically no hops. 100507

Bottled (thanks tbone_). Yellow colour, minor white head. Weak malts in the otherwise nearly non-existant aroma. Flavour is salty and hoppy with some weak sweetness coming through. Watery, but still a clean brew.

Bottled 500ml (BB 09/2006). I bought this one from Utobeer in London. Pale yellow, decent white head. Cardboard malty aroma, slightly metallic. Decently clean basic lager - malty with some sweetness which is propably from corn or rice. A bit metallic and harsh in the finish. Overall light.

A pale yellow beer with a small white head. Both the aroma and flavor are sweet with notes of straw and brewing cereal.
