Within a century, the Rwa of Mount Mera in Northern Tanzania switched from consuming banana beer to drinking tea and bottled sodas. This however is not a mere change of beverages, it was a sign of deeper social changes. Beer drinking, which was a priviledge of the elderly, was strongly condemned by the Lutheran church. Incidentally coffee farming spread outside the missions and Rwa farmers were incorporated further into the market economy. As a result, new social models developed. Nowadays, the population increase on Mount Meru leads to land shortage, which creates a series of economic and social problems
