Tusker is a beer brand owned by East African Breweries, with over 700,000 hectolitres being sold in Kenya per year.

The beer, originally from Kenya, shifted through to Tanzania and other countries in the African Great Lakes region, and soon began to be exported.

George Hurst, the company's founder, was killed in an elephant hunting accident and in his memory, his brother Charles decided to name the first beer brewed "Tusker".

In early 2008, the UK supermarket chain Tesco began selling Tusker, followed soon after by Sainsbury's.

The taste and quality have also received recognition at the prestigious Monde Selection’s International Awards.
