2.2 AROMA 4/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 3/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 9/20
Bottle. Pours light golden in color, with a huge white head. Easy drinking lager, smooth and refreshing. By far the best I have had out of India so far.
1 AROMA 1/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 1/10 PALATE 2/5 OVERALL 3/20
(bottle - 22 oz) Clear yellow with white foam. Plasticy aroma with a lot of corn sweetness, metal flakes, and stale hay. Flavor is way too sweet with some stale grass and malt notes. Bitter and cloying at the finish. Just... bad.
0.5 AROMA 1/10 APPEARANCE 1/5 TASTE 1/10 PALATE 1/5 OVERALL 1/20
Bottle. Very heavy grassy nose, very heavily carbonated and a little sickly to the nose. Clear, piss-colored pour, vigorous white head. Taste is very sweet, a little metal, little cardboard, corn syrup, some gritty dirty notes in the aftertaste. Light body. Nasty.
1.4 AROMA 2/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 2/10 PALATE 2/5 OVERALL 5/20
Bottle from Malt & Vine. Pours very light gold with a foamy white head. Aroma is mildly sweet with a barest hint of grass. Near medium body with frothy carbonation. Flavor is lightly bready with grassy bitter. It’s at least as good as Bud, I’d say, but I haven’t had Bud in years, so? Finishes with a more herby bitter and a touch of paper. It’d chase food down.
1.7 AROMA 3/10 APPEARANCE 2/5 TASTE 3/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 6/20
Pour is a really pale gold with a large white head. Aroma is almost nothing just some vegitable and even that is hard to detect. Flavor is again nothing just some adjunts. I knew that this would suck i just picked it up to fill out my mix-a-six.
2.9 AROMA 6/10 APPEARANCE 2/5 TASTE 6/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 12/20
Despite the rather incredulous claims the brewer dares to put on the label ("this amazing beer"), I found this to be a reasonably pleasant and drinkable lager; somewhat refreshing but nothing more. A tiny white head resulted from the pour, and this was gone is less than a minute! Colour was a fizzy clear gold. Aroma was a respectable grass/hop combination, and the taste was clean and crisp. Aftertaste was quite acceptable.
2 AROMA 3/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 3/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 8/20
The beer came in to position due to the great parking lot beer trade, and that little weasel Beercronic pond this stuff on me BASTERD!!!!! The look is your very typical crystal clear gold, however this beer did produce a massive long lasting head I was very surprised. Sweet rotten apple, and musty barn are what I smell most with some grassy malt hiding behind a wall of skunk, this aroma is not making want to drink this beer. Empty tasting beer, flavorless swill, well I can’t really say its flavorless there is a stale grass and mold fruit bowl taste but really its very bland. The mouth feel is good enough medium bodied and great crisp carbonation. And I new this beer would end up like this for a couple of reasons one the bottle is crystal clear, and two the label say’s premium Indian lager NO SUCH THING!!!"

***review from June 11, 2006***
The smell isn’t that bad - it comes across quite fresh, but there is something here that I do not like, something metallic? The sweet malts, hops and grassy aromas are pretty good considering. There’s also a lemon scent when breathing in deep. Classic clear gold beer with a bit of head that doesn’t last. Taste is suprisingly decent. Comes across a little empty, but it’s fresh and crisp for sure with the proper amount of bitterness and effervecence. Best Indian beer I’ve ever had.
