Can, bought in Egypt. Sweet perfumy aroma. Clear golden colour. No head. The flavour is thin and slightly teaish. Very watery, but less unpleasant than most NA beers.

Straw blond colour. Nice aroma with hoppy notes. Clean, fresh taste. A little hoppy with a slightly sweet finish.

21/11 0.33 l bottle my mum brought from Egypt, thanks. My first beer from there. It poured golden body with small head. Fine malty aroma with an alcohol punch. Surprisingly, some lemony hops show up here as well. Pretty light flavor, balanced between sweet malt and bitter spices, alcohol or whatever. Thinner in body with low carbonation, finishes quickly. Quite fine for what it is (although as of some hops can be considered as an ESL), simple, pleasant and easily drinkable, but too boring to be a good beer.

Bottle courtesy of heavy (thanks!), shared with him and ogivlado. Didn’t expect much from this one and didn’t get much. Gold body, small white heat. Alcohol, heavy maltiness and some lemon in the nose. The taste is quite light and mouth puckeringly dry, but with noticable alcohol burn, light maltiness. Not as terrible as it might’ve been so that’s a plus. It’s not a great beer but this isn’t the worst malt liquor you can get and hey, my first Egyptian rating.

Bottled(330ml). -courtesy of heavy(thanks!), shared with him and Doggythedog. African malt liquor, yeah... Pale golden coloured, just three streams of carbonation, medium sized white head, corn nose with touch of alcohol. Weak malty, grainy and corn taste with odd salty-sweet alcoholic finish.

(Bottle 33 cl) Courtesy of Grovlam. Clear golden with floating impurities and a white head leaving laces. Very sweet malt and alcohol in the nose. Medium body with very sweet malts and brewing cereal. Subdued bitterness but plenty of alcohol in the finish. 201008

Bottled. A golden beer with a white head. The aroma is sweet with notes of caramel, malt, and alcohol. The flavor is sweet malty with notes of alcohol, leaving a slight burn in the mouth and making the body thick.

Can (BB 11/2008)
Pale yellow color, decent white head, lots of lace. Rubbery aroma. Very sweet, rubbery, alcoholic and grainy flavor. To be avoided.

Canned (thanks omhper!). Golden colour, not much head. Aroma is rubber, glue, alcohol and some mild maize and grass. Flavour is alcohol, glue, parfume, bready malts and that’s about it...
