The Challenge

What started as a labour of love on the Pubs of Manchester blog has now stretched to a World Beers add-on to supplement our
original adventures. The plan is simple, it is to sample a beer native to every country in the world where possible! It's a tough job...

008. Cyprus - Keo (4.5%)


This was a slight disappointment, as I have such great memories of Keo from holidays as a youth. Supping pints of this by the pool all day in dimpled pint pots before doing the same in the night spots of Ayia Napa left me with the impression that this might just be the greatest cooking lager in the world. A decade or two later and either my taste buds have developed or I was naive. Or maybe it's just that draught Keo is that different to its bottled brother, which has a slightly burnt malt smell, touching on vinegar. Still tastes good though.
