Dieses Bier hat mir 2013 mein Kollege Harald mitgebracht, der dort ein paar Wochen unterwegs war. Es ist mit Quellwasser des Weissen Nils gebraut, der in der Gegend der Brauerei entspringt. Es ist ähnlich dem Tusker recht leicht, aber doch angenehm hopfig-frisch. Sicher keine Aromenbombe, aber durchaus trinkbar.

50cl bottle. Slightly hazy gold, thin white head. Smells like old hay that was wetted and left to rot, stale bread, spent yeast from a fermenter. Taste is overly sweet, canned corn, some hay, some cheap malt extract. Watery finish.
