This "beer" is much more like a cheap malt liquor masquerading around in a beer suit. I can’t find anything to like about this drink. The taste is simply awful and the cheap ingredients it’s made with no doubt contribute to the famously bad hangovers it leaves in it’s wake. Because of the strength, I used to drink this often (certain parts of India limit the amount of beer you can buy in a month, so better go strong) but now I honestly get an instant headache half an hour after drinking just one.
