Tusker is a product of the East Africa Breweries Group. It hails from Nairobi, Kenya and is sold in classic 500mL bottles--great shape and cool style. It contains a rather anemic 4.2% alcohol. Tusker is a clear, straw coloured pint with little head or carbonation.
With an aroma heavy in grains and a very mild flavour, Tusker is an extremely drinkable brew. It has a blend of breadiness and a faint citrus zest. There is a slight sweetness at the back end.
Tusker is a fine pale lager--not a great one. It is highly drinkable, but not overly compelling. It's definitely better than most macro-brewed pale lagers, and probably worth a try. Still, I'd prefer more alcohol and more carbonation. I like my lagers to fizz a it more.
Rating: 6.5 out of 10.
