Bottled. Pale yellow colour, big white head, which disappears quickly though. Strong alcoholic sting in aroma, with weak malts also present. Easy to drink, due to wateryness. Wateryness is also the weakness in it. Alcohol nowhere to be fount in flavour. Weak malts is there as well as some weird sweetness, could be a mix of sugar and vegetables or something. Could be good with Indian food, otherwise not. A bit oilyish palate.

Bottle at HogTownHarry Fest ’08. Pale gold. Disappearing white head. No aroma. No flavour. Pretty damn awful as it just tastes of lemony metal. But it did come in a 17 year old girl’s knickers. Long story.....

Bottled 650ml (brewed by Rochees Breweries, Alwar)
Sweved ice-gold in Agra, another sample in Jaipur. Darkish yellow, not much head. Sweet honey, mint and vegetables aroma. Light, sweetish palate.Mild grassy hoppyness and some vegetable taste. Does not show much alcohol (which actually might be as low as 5.25%) - more like "light beer".

Canned. Pale yellow coloured. Clear. Dense white head. Canny, light metallic sweet and fruity aroma. Flavour is quite sweet and light grassy. Has some sugary and fruity notes. Medium bodied. A bit dry. Has an alcoholwarming sweetish end. Alcohol is quite well hidden.
