Handwritten notes: In a lot of ways Africa is a different world from what you and I know. I know a fellow from Kenya and at one point we puzzled about how to send a piece of mail to someone he knew (in a big city mind you, over a million people). The big office buildings downtown have addresses but everywhere else there is only a description like "the brown house three doors down from the corner by the river". Keep this in mind when you drink Tusker. No matter how different people might be, there's always beer. It's the great equalizer, and the platform of my campaign for world peace and unity. This beer is a dry but refreshing quencher. This is a bitterly dry, almost dusty, and citrussy, spicy beer. Kind of good, guy. Kind of good.
