About Lion Lager

Lion Lager is a medium-bodied five per cent beer with a pronounced hop bitterness and little sweetness, and it has been sold in Zimbabwe long enough for Delta to have given it a major label relaunch alongside Castle as far back as 1968. Delta lists it among the franchise lager brands it brews under licence rather than among the local brands it owns.
