According to the IATA travel centre the duty free alcohol import limits are 2 bottles of maximum 1 litre each. Quoting from the linked website:

Customs Rules

Import regulations::

Free import:

  1. all passengers (18 years of age and over) (duty free allowance only once per year per passenger):

    a. 400 cigarettes or 50 cigars or 250 grammes pipe tobacco;

    b. 2 bottles alcoholic beverages of not more than 1 litre each

It would therefore seem that you'll have to pay import duty on the exceeding cans of beer. According to the online duty calculator, duty for beer is 15% plus sales tax of 12%.
