BEER OF THE WEEK: Tusker Lager
History: George Hurst a co-founder of Kenya Breweries Ltd, was killed by an elephant during a hunting expedition in 1923. In memory of his tragic death, this famous lager beer that he had helped create was renamed ‘Tusker’.
Tusker Lager: Tusker Brewery Lager pours a big white head and has a very pale appearance. It has a malty smell with a small amount of hops on the nose. Tusker is a light bodied lager that has a crisp, clean feel to it with a dry finish. This is definitely a thirst-quenching beer. Tusker lager comes in at 4.2% ABV.
