Clear, deep golden to copper colored, medium white frothy head, nice lacing, not too lasting. Aroma is malty, caramel and sugary, some corn, light cardboard, bit grassy hops. Taste is medium sweet malt, caramel, some sweet corn notes, white sugar, light+ grassy bitterness, bittersweet finish. Medium bodied, soft carbonation, bit creamy. Seems like sugar disguised in beer but the cleanest thing here... (bottle)

Pours a clear, golden color, topped with a medium white head. OK retention and a bit creamy. Grassy nose wit hsome dusty feel to it. Slightly sweet scent. Very sweet malty and fruity body, not much else going on in there. Almost like a radler feel, with sugar and some lemony, grassy presence. Way too sweet and sugary, and in general not nice.

65cl bottle from Nakumatt supermarket, Kigali / Rwanda 🇷🇼. Smooth grainy beginning. Lots of grain, soft and smooth body. Easy to drink with fresh and grainy hints. Sweetish grainy in the aftertaste with still some nice smooth malt.
