What it is

The Pacific's German-born lager: Vailima — brewed in Apia since 1978 (its name from the village by Robert Louis Stevenson's home, 'five waters'), a full-strength lager from Samoa Breweries that anchors every fa'alavelave celebration. Origins: Stevenson settled at Vailima in 1890; the brewery took the name in 1978 (German brewing heritage on the label's soul). Made from: malt, hops (imported) and Samoan water. How it's made: 1) Brew lager in Apia. 2) Serve ice-cold — the Pacific's rule. 3) With oka (raw fish) and island feasts. Served: everywhere in Samoa and the diaspora (Auckland, Sydney). Flavor: full, malty lager. Strength: 4.9% (Vailima Lager; 'Pure' is the lighter line). Culture: a crate of Vailima is the sound of a Samoan celebration arriving. See also: Kava (Fiji) — Samoa's own 'ava ceremony is its sibling rite.
