Bottle courtesy of Diana and the DCMs, thanks! Clear pale yellow color, fluffy white head. Aroma of paper, cardboard, construction paper. Taste is dirty, trashy lemons run over by speeding cars.

650ml bottle: cheers Mat for bringing this to the Jan 2016 Shrewsbury Beer Exchange Group meeting. My 114th different country! You have helped me reach that total on more than one occasion Mat. Anyway this Pale Lager poured out clear golden and bright, it gave off a corn like aroma and had a slight metallic twang to it’s grainy led taste. Not unpleasant and I bet it’s refreshing in a Jungle, or is it a Rain Forest these days?

650ml bottle @ Shrewsbury Beer Share, Jan 16, courtesy of myself! Pours clear gold with small white head. Aroma is lightly sweet with some sweetcorn. Taste continues with very light cardboard. Unremarkable but not unpleasant.

Very light yellow colour, no real head to speak of. Tastes citrusy, watery. Kind of a weaker version of Primus.

Bottled (thanks omhper & Zappa Was Right!). Nice label with a crocodile on it. The beer is hazy golden with a thin orangey head. The aroma is sweet malty with a light touch of hops. The flavor though is sweet malty with notes of metal, leading to a dry strawy finish. The body is thin. Not as bad as expected.

Golden color, white head, some lace. Urine hoppy aroma. Watery with some grassy hoppy and papery flavor. Wet papery notes. Not the worst African, but nothing to dance about.

Bottled (thanks omhper & Zappa Was Right!). Pale yellow colour, mediumsized white head. Aroma is hay, maize and some slight maltyness.. Flavour is the same. Not very exciting, but a nice country!

[Bottled] Pale yellow, airy head. Aroma of vegetables and metal. Sweet with sharp rusty metallic flavour. Fizzy with notes of corn. No hops or bitterness detected. Heineken style I’m afraid...
