Head was hard to get a rise out of it, but then again it was a warm day in India. Strong aroma, crisp clear flavour and lush gold colour.

Bottled. Golden coloured. Clear. Dense off white head. Fruity and light grassy aroma. Gets a bit vegie while warming. Flavour is fruity and has light spices. Is sweet. Has a light to medium body. No bitterness in the end, but loads of fruites. By no means world class, but of the Indian beers I’ve tried till now, one of the better.

Bottled. A golden beer with a thin white head. The aroma is sweet malty combined with a skunky note, and a light touch of spices. The flavor is sweet with light notes of honey, dusty hops, and skunky brewing cereal. The body is thin. Thanks madsberg for bringing this to Denmark.

(Bottle 65 cl) Courtesy of madsberg. Pours a pale golden with tiny impurities and a small, white head. Good, fresh, hop aroma. Medium body with sweet notes of brewing cereal, some cardboard touches and a short, dry finish. 191207
