This is second Ethiopian beer scored for me by a co-worker. I love being able to sample beers that I wouldn’t normally encounter.
Unlike the St. George Beer, there’s a bit more information out there on the intarwebz. For instance:
Meta Abo Brewery is located in the town of Sebata, 27 km from Addis Ababa. The brewery was established in 1963 by the Ethiopian Government and Ethiopian private nationals as a share company with a starting capital base of 2 million Birr.
It is the only brewery which gets water from a big reserve of soft spring water (locally known as holy water of St. Abo). The spring water meets the international brew standard to be used without any treatment. The brewery produces bottled and draught beer.
Light caramel color, fluffy white head. Wheaty/grainy aroma. Light, crisp, a little toasty. This is actually a bit more robust than a typical light lager. This isn’t a style that I generally like, but it’s pretty good. I’d have this again. And I love the unique bottle.
