Tafel from Hansa Brauerei / Namibia Breweries
Rating: B-
I'm a bit surprised this one doesn't have more reviews.
Appearance is golden, big head, exceptional head retention.
Smells clean and lagery, but with a hint of hops - more so than is usually present in the style.
Taste is well balanced. Bitterness is smooth, hint of malt sweetness at the back end, a touch of mineral.
Mouthfeel is very smooth, finish is crisp, but the aftertaste leaves a bit to be desired. Good body.
This is another Reinheitsgebot-compliant beer out of Namibia that reinforced my conjecture that Namibians brew better beer than South Africans. Like Windhoek, but a touch more interesting.
Serving type: bottle
