Bottled. Clear golden, mid sized head. Aroma of corn bread. Mid dry with light body and rounded mouthfeel. Corn and some hay. Rather low bitterness. Relatively clean and drinkable.

Bright yellow colour. Aroma of high gravity brewing, like sticky malts and too malt alcohol. Sticky and with a bit of alcohol, and that alcohol stays with your palate through the finish. So sticky, sourish, and not all that much i

Tanzania’s national standard lager – every traditionally non-beery country has one – sampled at Belgium Chimipalooza, from a can. Loose and opening, snow white head, cristal clear pale straw blonde colour. Simple and pretty standard nose of soggy chicken food and popcorn, plastic, minerals, hint of grass. Sweet grainy onset, soggy breakfast cereals in a very thin and superficial way, sourish edge, medium carb, thin, minerally and a tad metallic. Plastic-like effect in the finish, hardly any hop bitterness. Poor as expected, but seen the geographical context, I guess this functions fine as a thirst-quencher for tourists visiting this country for a safari adventure… I had worse African lagers than this one, but still I'd prefer Kenya's Tusker over this.

Bottle at the hotel in Dar es Salaam. No head no matter how much I tried. Aroma is malty, but far from full. Taste is dry, very dry. Not helpful in this hot and humid weather. But still, it could have been worse.

Pours a clear golden color, topped with a relatively small and not really lasting white head (just a small cover left). Mild grainy aroma, some wet paper gentle notes. Taste very sweet upfront, a bit apple like actually. Just a hint of bittery feel in the finish. Not too unpleasant, very light but way too sweet.

Bottle shared at the Cotteridge convention, 24/01/2015. Many thanks to Leighton for the country tick. Very pale yellow coloured pour with a loose white head. Aroma is awful, big skunky, veg, pepper, adjuncty, sweet mess. Flavour si composed of papaery stale grains, veg and piss. Palate is lifeless, low carbonation. Terrible.

Bottle split at the Cotteridge Convention, 24/01/15. Clear pale golden with moderate off white spitting. Nose is pale malt, grain, light citrics, caramel, more aroma than many beers of this ilk! Taste comprises paper, grain, cereal, pale malt, straw. Medium bodied, moderate carbonation with light prickle, semi drying close. Pap but there’s worse papage!
