Over Xmas I 'discovered' this beer and since then can't stop getting myself a few cans whenever I go to Nakumatt. Infact it has made me look forward to trips to Nakumatt. The beer has this unique creamy smooth taste with a stoutly, chocolaty, coffee flavour. It's like a Guinness that has been mixed with some chocolate icecream, coffee and some tusker. It makes my usual Whitecap taste like tap water, also makes Guinness seem like some bitter herbal concortion. The alcohol content is quite high at 7.9%, which is nearly double that of tusker. I had to google this beer and was surprised that it was formulated recently (Oct 2013) for the African and Asian markets and would later be introduced into the US and Canada. The beer can is unique in that it's studded. Unfortunately I can't find this beer in my local. At nakumatt, a can is 190 bob compared to tusker and Guinness at 117 and 150 Bob respectively.

Has anyone else tasted this beer or have my taste buds gone berserk?

Yeah its quite strong, I normally take 3 cans which are equivalent to 6 tuskers. Have I described the taste of the beer correctly?

It's way much lower than alcohol content in a glass of red wine which is 12%, or amarula at 17.5% or a shot of whisky at 40%........or changaa at 70%. BTW it's closest to the ladies favourite, Smirnoff Black Ice, which is 7%.
