Striped Horse Premium Lager 500ml
Crack one of these and you get a proper South African lager that actually tastes of something. Pale gold, soft and malty, with just enough hop snap to keep it interesting. It's the beer for a slow Friday, a plate of nyama choma, or that hour where one quietly becomes three. Smooth enough to keep up, characterful enough that you notice. Want it cold at the door tonight? Say the word.
Pour it and you'll smell sweet malt with a faint fruity lift, a little like cake batter as it warms. The first sip is gentle and malty, then a thread of roasted caramel slides in, and right at the back there's a whisper of chocolate before a soft, clean bitterness signs off. Lively bubbles, a rounded middle, nothing harsh or watery. It drinks easier than its flavour suggests, which is exactly the trap.
The details
Pairs well with
Where it's from
Striped Horse was born in 2014 down in Muizenberg, the surf town on the edge of Cape Town. The name is a nod to the zebra, proudly African and instantly recognisable, which is the whole idea behind the beer. It's brewed in the Cape by Devil's Peak, one of South Africa's most respected craft outfits, so there's serious brewing muscle behind that easygoing label.
