About Tigra
Tigra is Refriango's pilsner and the brand it has pushed hardest in recent years, a beer the company says was designed in Munich by the Doemens Institute in order to bring centuries of German brewing practice to Angolan drinkers. Refriango presents it as a national product with an international seal of quality, and it is one of the brands decorated at the Monde Selection awards. The name also carries the company's Nova Garra awards, which recognise young Angolans, and it is one of the two brands the company calls its new stars.
