Castel Beer

Castel Beer is brewed in Kombolcha, Ethiopia by BGI Ethiopia.  I first tried Castel when I was in Northern Ethiopia in December 2006.

I have a pretty fond memory of drinking several Castel beers with my three friends I was traveling with in Axum.  On our last night in Axum, we had nearly been run out of town and were staying at a voluntary testing center after our hotel tried to force us to go elsewhere in an even worse unfinished hotel.  There was a long story behind this and our 3 days in Axum but I digress.  When we had the Castel on the last night we each had the person across the table from us take our picture (see below).

Here is a RateBeer review and a Beer Advocate review.
