Bottle split at Cotts Convention ii, thanks to team Cotts, 05/03/16. Clear golden blonde with a decent off white cap. Nose is pale malt, grain, straw, cereals. Taste comprises light caramel, toasted grain, pale malt, raw sugar. Medium bodied, fine carbonation, semi drying close. Average but not the worst for an obscure country.

Bottle thanks to the Cotteridge Wines guys at the 2016 Cotteridge Convention. It pours yellow - gold with a medium white head. The nose is sweet, grainy, lots of paper and cereal. The taste is sweet, sticky, sugary, corn, candy, green veg and cereal with a sweetish finish. Medium body and moderate carbonation. I thought this was pretty bloody awful. Sweet and rotten.

Bottle shared at the Cotteridge Convention - 2016 edition. Cheers! Pours clear gold with a tight, creamy white head. The nose has light cabbage and cereal. Medium to heavy sweet flavour, with sugary pale bread, white sugar. Light to medium bodied with average carbonation. Sugary finish, with more white bread and simple sugars. So so.

Oct. ’14. Thanks Marko for sharing a 0.33 l bottle. It poured clear brownish body with a small head. Malty aroma, especially caramel, cloyingly sweet. Flavor was lightly sweet, also caramel, grainy, touched with alcohol, whose presence was more obvious in the finish. Medium bodied. My first Rwandan beer didn’t turned out to be bad at all!
