65cl bottle from an African restaurant in Wuppertal. Smooth grainy beginning. Fresh, easy to drink, but not deep. Grainy, sweetish, hints of corn. The aftertaste is smooth, sweetish, not too deep. Slightly bitter, grainy. Not too bad...

Found in an African restaurant in Wuppertal. Grainy nose, the beer starts quite watery malty, thirst-quenching with not too much aroma. Fresh with grainy malty hints in the mainpart, not too watery. The aftertaste is medium, grainy, slightly bitter. Not bad.

Poura a clear golden color, topped with decent white head that completely disappears in a moment. There is a very mild malty aroma and slight dust. Not much there. The taste is sweet, light and slightly cardboardy, but it has some nicely bitter finish and sweet aftertaste.

Heavy 0,65l bottle found in an african shop in Brussels.
Dark golden in the glass, very grainy nose. The beer starts malty, slightly grainy and very dry. More Pils typical than normal Pale Lager. Nice crisp and bitter, easy to drink. The mainpart is crisp, a bit watery and grainy-dry. Slightly bitter. The aftertaste is medium, grainy-crisp, dry, nicely hopped and very refreshing!
Nice and decent brew! --> 10/12/11/10

Pale golden colour, white head. Aroma of malts, hay and straw. Sweet malty flavour, corn. Finish corn, light hops, quite sweet. Another country, another tick.

65cl bottle @ RBBWG III, thanks Tderoeck. BB 05/2014. Dorée, col blanc moyen. Bière sèche avec pas mal de pétillant, note de maïs, pâle et ce fini métallique typique. Retrouve très peu de caractère au niveau des houblons. Ok, mais franchement rien de spécial.

65 cl. bottle sampled @ RBBWG 2014. Courtesy of & thx! to tderoeck. BBF 05/2014 – I believe it was. Pale apple juice with white bubbles for a head. Nose is oddly very sweet, sweet apples, aspartame-type sweeteners & cheap aspirin. Taste is bitter grains, something musty, wet hay, aspartame-type sweeteners, expired aspirin,… Fizzy. Tempted to call this bad by even African beer standards. “The Queen of Beers”? Oh, lord.
