Bottle: Poured a clear golden color lager with a medium size head with limited retention. Aroma consists of light sweet malt with no detectable adjunct. Taste is quiet bland with very little else then some bland adjunct. Body is light with medium carbonation. Another bland offering which is still not that interesting even under the hot Kenyan sun.

Bottle: Poured a bright golden color lager with a bubbly head with medium retention. Aroma consists of sweet adjunct notes that are dominant. Taste is also dominated by some sweet adjunct notes with very little else in terms of characteristics. Body is thin with medium carbonation. This is very bland with too much adjunct coming through and taste as crap as other pale lager form this brewer. I am starting to wonder if there is not some re-packaging/marketing happening here.

Bottle: Poured a super clear yellow color pilsner with a medium size pure white foamy head with average retention. Aroma of light semi-sweet malt notes with no adjunct really detectable. Taste is somewhat thin with notes of semi-sweet malt with thin floral undertones. Body is light with OK carbonation. This is the type of beer that is best enjoyed very fresh after doing a full day of safari.

Aroma: Very sweet. Strong corn notes. Light cereal aroma.

Appearance: Golden, clear body. Thin, white, quickly diminishing head. No lacing. Lots of carbonation.

Taste: This tastes like the juice from a can of sweetcorn. Far too sweet and cloying - bordering on undrinkable.

Palate: Very fizzy. Light mouthfeel - like drinking sparkling water. No bitterness on the finish to speak of.

Overall: To date, this is easily the worst beer I have tasted. Quite simply, it tastes of corn syrup. Fake, cheap and far too sweet. I will never drink this again.

Homme, I thought I already did this beer. Smell is a little off, from a bottle. Yes, typical old beer flavors. Reminds me a little of king lager but not quite as rude. Usual pale lager appearance. Palate is almost watery but never quite gets there. Happy black elephant with circled R says this is ok beer. 4% rating on this is fairly light alky content for the feel of this brew, seems like +5%. Shell chalky finish.
