Tafel Beer - Namibia Breweries
Chilled mug with beer from fridge an essential during hot season on Durban coast, lite crisp lager, refreshing during the day in fine Reinheitsgebot lite beer drinking.
Bottle poured a relatively good head considering heat outdoors, the head did not last long with all with bubbles disappearing within a minute leaving a small layer of bubbles while you sipped away.
This did not take away the great taste, I do enjoy slight bitterness this beer has to offer at the end of a day, winter will be the time to taste test Tafel Lager as well.
Personally I only ever drink beer out of glass and normally don't bother with a mug unless I remember to do the odd photography on the golden delicious liquid.
There are a few beers offered by Namibia Breweries will be sure to taste test more soon.
"Tafel beer has its origins at the Hansa Brewery in Swakopmund.."
BRIEF HISTORY OF BEER IN NAMIBIA?
Until the late 1800’s, beer in the then South West Africa, was imported from Germany. The imported beer had a high alcohol content to preserve it during the long journey to Namibia by sea. It quickly became obvious that the beer was too strong for consumption in the hot African climate. It is then that entrepreneurs started brewing beer locally.
By 1920 four local breweries had been established, namely:? Omaruru Brauerei, Kronenbrauerei in Swakopmund, Klein Windhoek Brauerei as well as Felsenkeller Brauerei, both in Windhoek?.
In the same year, the four breweries were acquired by Carl List and Hermann Ohlthaver who then amalgamated these into the South West Breweries (SWB) and with its location in Windhoek. Source
