Zwykłe i bardzo niesmaczne piwo nr. 1 w Niegerii? Dla mnie jedno z ostatnich w tm rankingu. Tani słód kukurydziany, zresztą jak prawie w każdych piwach egzotycznych, zapach odpychający. Troszkę pianka z początku się twoży ale jest drobnoziarnista i szybko znika

Big bottle, looks interesting. Beer in the glass zippy, small head. Starts mild, a bit metallically, modest dry. Mild finish, a bit soapy-dry. Nothing special.

Bottle, 60cl. Pours clear golden with a white head. Aroma of sweet malt. Sweet and watery, but drinkable. Better than expected.
