Sierra Stripped Horse 500ml Can
Crack this on a hot Nairobi evening and you get exactly what you're after: a cold golden lager that goes down smooth without any harsh bitter bite. It's got real malt behind it, so there's a little caramel sweetness instead of that watery nothing you get from the big mass-market cans. Half a litre per can means one less trip to the fridge. Friend asks what to grab for the braai? This.
Pours a bright gold with a thick white head. The nose is sweet and malty, a bit like fresh bread with a hint of cake batter. First sip leans malty-sweet with soft caramel, and as it warms there's even a faint dusting of chocolate hiding in there. The hops keep it balanced rather than punchy, so the bitterness is gentle and the finish stays clean and refreshing. More flavour than a standard lager, but still nothing that asks you to think too hard.
The details

Where it's from
Striped Horse is a Cape Town craft brand that kicked off in 2014, built on the idea of Old World European brewing done on African soil. It's steered by master brewer Wolfgang Koedel, who brought decades of European training to the recipe. The name is basically a nod to the zebra, Africa's own striped horse, and the brand even has a flagship beach bar on the Muizenberg surf strip. This one is brewed in South Africa and lands in your hands in a 500ml can.
