65cl bottle, no date. Found in a Congolese shop in Brussels.
Dark brown in the glass, malty-grainy and malty-sweetish nose. The beer starts dry and malty. Nearly nothing of the malty sweetness from the nose. Hints of sourness which makes it very easy to drink. The mainpart is quite aroma-full for what I’ve expected from the Congo. Malty-dry, slightly sweet with hints of sourness. A bit warming in the aftertaste, not very bitter, a bit malty-dry in the end.
Nice beer for coming from the Congo! --> 10/12/9/10

Bouteille de et partagée avec Tderoeck. Dorée assez claire, col blanc modéré. Arôme de grains léger, malt tout aussi modéré le tout restant typique des pale lagers africaine. Reste néanmoins ok au niveau olfactif avec un profil faisant la part belle au malt et un houblonné plus que discret en rétro-nasal. Palais est légèrement houblonné pour des notes amers très discrètes. Malt pâle-pils avec un petit côté caramel plus présent. Le tout reste cependant légèrement métallique. Petite note douce en résiduel rappelant le maïs. Pas terrible, mais reste correcte en comparaison aux autres bières africaines.
