Read a poem about my first contact with Tusker larger when I was a boy in Kenya in the 1950’s.

Cheers

I haven’t tried Tusker yet, and based on the majority of opinion here it won’t be anything that I end up trying soon. Still, it goes to show how people’s tastes in beer can vary so widely!

I think it’s a little better than a two…but not that much. I do want to mention, though, that I got a guy on my site recently who thought it was one of the best beers ever. That’s a serious overstatement. Anyway, I gave it a better score. Here is my review of it. http://thankheavenforbeer.com/2009/04/02/review-of-tusker-lager-by-east-african-breweries/

I’ve also had this beer before. I mainly bought it becasue of the great story on the bottle. I was also disappointed and didn’t think it was anything special at all. I find that beers from far away seem to be super excellent or really terrible, there isn’t much of a middle ground.

I love a beer with a good backstory, and this brew has a really interesting one. Unfortunately, it sounds like that’s the best part of the beer.

I agree with Simply Beer, that most times foreign beer tastes best on foreign soil. Pilsner tastes glorious in Germany, and Medalla is actually palatable if you’re in San Juan.

I dunno, for me “exotic” beer always tastes better when your there. Something about just being away from the homestead makes everything taste better. Kalic and Red Stripe always taste better in the Bahamas then it does in New Jersey…
