SB Lager was established in 1993 as the first mainstream local beer. The full bodied beer (with a hint of sweetness) has a smooth taste that most locals appreciate – especially in areas where having a chilled beer is not always possible. SB’s iconic look reflects its strong local roots.

Bottled@wPBF III. Yellowish golden colour, small white head. Aroma is herbs overdose, floral and some grainy notes. Flavour is herbal, grass and mild earthiness. Actually quite surprisingly fresh and nice.

Can from a Supermarket in Port Vila, Vanuatu, August 2014. Clear golden with a small white head. Quite thin with cardboard, some light fruit. The finish was short with some light bitterness. Really nothing to write home about.

Deep gold colour. Slightly appley aroma, with more alcohol apparent compared with regular Solbrew. A touch of acidity but this serves to balance out the alcohol. It’s not so strong you can’t session it, which is good.
