Tusker Beer was first brewed back in 1922 by two brothers. Just a year later, George Hurst a co-founder of Kenya Breweries Ltd was killed by an elephant, and the name Tusker was given to the lager in tribute. Tusker Beer sales in the UK are continuing to grow mainly as a result of more people discovering Tusker. This is usually after a new or repeat visit to Kenya, Tanzania, and Uganda where the pale lager is very popular. Visitors usually find it and enjoy a couple of Tuskers after a day on Safari, or when unwinding in the hotel bar or beach resort.

12th Jan – So the drag to Jan payday has begun, and the weather has not been beer-drinking weather, really, unless you keep warm or head to the pub or two. I am starting to think about the garden and house jobs to save time in spring. Buy Tusker @ Amazon #ad Or view Garden items @ therange | Pizza Ovens @therange  #ads

12th December – Ok, wow, time is going so quickly, and my good intentions of having Christmas gifts sorted out early have taken a bit of a hit. There is still a good week or so to get sorted, but I, along with online for Beer and Spirit bargains, I have been making sure to use the high street for markets, presents and local ideas.

13th November – Brr it’s getting cold, but a beer or a drink or two, whilst you’re wrapped up in casual wear at home, or out for an event or Christmas do, is still nice.

14th October – Ok, well it’s now turned more grey and colder, but still an odd bit of Sun, so garden tidier and almost ready for rain or winter. I like that the option for a small BBQ or burn is possible… and a cheeky Beer or drink or two, to have some friends or family over. I am also thinking about the Big Sack event a bit early, and maybe what drinkable gifts and deals are here soon for then/now and for great gifts.

2nd September – I am annoyed at how quickly the recent weeks have flown by, the light is now creeping up on us, and the rain has decided to try and make mud where the grass was. I am sure there will be a rest bite soon and still plenty of time to enjoy the garden, cabin, summer house or maybe a firepit or burn, before we need to pack the shorts away, look for jumpers and fleece and slippers to enjoy a beer or drink to warm ourselves with.

11th August – Can you believe how quickly summer is slipping away? With the last bank holiday of the season approaching, it feels like the perfect time to pause and soak in these remaining warm days. 

Whether you’re planning garden gatherings, attending local events, or simply enjoying quiet moments outdoors, I hope you’re creating those special memories that make summer unforgettable. Take time to appreciate the people around you – both the little ones with their boundless energy and the grown-ups who matter most.

Life has a way of throwing curveballs when we least expect them. Sometimes multiple challenges arrive all at once, leaving us thinking, “I never saw that coming.” In a world where we can feel like just another number, let’s choose to be the kindest number – giving our time generously and truly valuing the moments we share with others.

Your garden can be your sanctuary during these busy days. Whether you prefer to sit quietly with your thoughts, listen to music through earbuds, catch a peaceful nap, or use the time to brainstorm your next project, embrace whatever feels right. Even something as simple as tidying up the flower beds or organising your outdoor space can be surprisingly therapeutic.

Alongside the original Tusker beer in East Africa, you can also find two alternative versions which are Tusker Export and Tusker Malt Lager, so make sure you look out and try them on your next tour, holiday, or safari. Tuser cider is also quite good if you want to mix it up.

Tusker Malt is available in the UK in 330ml bottles  Buy 24 bottles – Now back instock Back Soon This Malt lager is brewed for longer compared to traditional lagers and the result is a rich, smooth taste and is slightly stronger at 5% volume. The bottles are 330ml in volume and come in a green glass bottle with Tusker embossed four times on the neck.

Tusker Malt was first launched in 1996 by EABL as its first premium brand, before this it was only available as an export.

Tusker is not widely available in the UK and is not a retailed product in the big 4 stores or independents, which is a shame but also kind of nice. The fact it is a lesser-known lager and known more by word of mouth and not just another bottle on the shelf.

You can buy Tusker online, I always like to have one or two to bring back memories of Safaris and trips where cold Tusker was enjoyed. They make ideal gifts for drinkers who have drunk them on safari or resorts, or who are unlikely to of tried it before.

Tusker is a pale lager with a crisp, refreshing taste and a balanced, mild hop bitterness. It has an alcohol by volume (ABV) of 4.2%, making it a session beer suitable for various occasions.

Tusker Lager is originally brewed from 100% African ingredients, the barley is from the Savannah & the Maasai Mara and the spring water is from the Aberdare Mountains. This gives the drink its exquisite and authentic taste.

Tusker beer has won numerous gold medals at the prestigious “Monde Selection” international beer awards.

Food pairings: Tusker Beer is a versatile beverage that pairs well with a variety of dishes. It is especially complementary to grilled meats, spicy foods, and traditional East African cuisine, such as nyama choma, sukuma wiki, and ugali.

Alcohol Units	2.1
ABV	4.2%
Pack Quantity	500
Pack Measure	ml
Country	Kenya

If you are lucky enough to be in Kenya and nearby territories you can find Tusker on draught just about everywhere and 500ml bottles and 330ml cans for portable refreshment. 🙂

For many Kenyans Tusker Lager = Beer!

Tusker Beer is primarily popular in East African countries such as Kenya, Tanzania, and Uganda, it is also exported to other countries worldwide and I for one am grateful it is.

Buying Tusker by the bottle instead of 12 bottles/box at a time is not worth it, buy a box or combine it with other spirits or orders. The postage on lower orders does outweigh the cost and you might as well buy a box, buy additional ‘liquid enjoyment’ at the same time or split the costs with friends or family.
Shipping for just a few bottles is often around the same price as two boxes as the courier costs are slight when over the initial weight limit. Buy Tusker by the bottle @ DrinkShop – Drinkshop used to sell it by the bottle, but not available at present 🙁 other tipples and sometimes tusker via DS #ad
