1947 Premium Lager
Bottle from total wine. Pale lager color with a slight haze. Friendly vienna lager nose. Initially has some of that odd cheap aged pale american lager flavor but it really starts to grow on you in the middle. Even at less than 5% I'm getting a slight warming sensation in the gullet. Interesting. Has a lighter pale lager feel to it but its a little more than a simple pale lager. Funny they come right out and say its a craft beer, heheh. Everybody wants in on, and wants to sell craft beers before the wave crashes, if it ever does. Quite friendly and easy drinken, could easily do a few of these buggers on a hot day in the sun in florida.

Hazy faint gold. Short duration of head. Non lacing in the glass. A grain nose. Greater nuanced taste of spices, maybe ginger meets cinnamon meets cloves all with a fizzy texture. Not mass market. Mouthfeel is medium moves to soft. Semi dry finish.

Masalawalla Park Slope: bottle: pours gold with white head. Neutral graininess and some light hops. Smooth, slightly sweet. Basic, but paired well with the spicy food I ate.

12oz bottle pours out golden topped with a white head. Nose is grassy grain and not much else going on. Taste is more of the grassy hops touch of grain and some bread.

Standard US longneck, decent label. I'm sure someone has the tattoo by now. Clear, very pale yellow, crackling white head. Cereal aroma. Low bittering, slightly sweet. the odd floral/fruity note on the backend. Distinct strawberry esters in the finish, though faint. Light body. Very drinkable, good summer beer, not terribly crafty though. Community Co-Op, Tallahassee.

12 oz bottle. Pours clear gold with a white head quickly gone. Straw and cut grass smells. Sweet malt forward with some balancing hops. Not very distinctive.

12 oz. bottle from Total Wine - Melbourne. Pours a hazy yellow color with a bright white head and good retention. Almost no lacing. Slightly sour grains aroma. The taste is a generic mix of grains and pale malt with a light diacetyl finish. Initially crisp mouthfeel that fades to flat. Somewhat light, weak body. Mostly Inoffensive, but still below average for a pale lager.

Bottle. Pours with almost no head and looks more like an orange tea than a beer. It doesn't present much of an aroma at all. It drinks with an interestingly smooth character, with the lack of carbonation evident but not necessarily off-putting either. This is sweet and unusual, and I oddly find myself saying it tastes like it looks ... orange tea. (#7245, 10/2018)

Bottle. Pours slightly cloudy rich yellow with small foamy white head, bread aroma, high carbonation, sweetish malty taste, thin body, abrupt finish. Malty and smooth, I guess it would go well with spicy food as stated.

Hmm. Interesting brew. Found in the Indian section of John’s, but seems American but marketed as Indian American which is cool. Pours a amber color with a small white head. A light floral malty nose. Toast, light fruit similar to cherry, some biscuit. Very smooth. Works well.

Bottle from Junoon Restaurant. They have two beers, this and Kingfisher. I like how they keep strong with the mother culture. Drinkable lager, not bad at all. Slightly fruity when I opened it up but since its been straight up beer. Would drink more, not a problem. ---Rated via Beer Buddy for iPhone

It is what it is: a decent lager. Pairs well with Indian food; I had it with Chicken Tikka Masala, Chicken Tikka, and Bhindi. ---Rated via Beer Buddy for iPhone

I had this indian beer at the restaurant in Manhattan, Mint, last weekend. i enjoyed it compared to the other selections that i always felt were grainy, earthy and unpleasant after-tastes. 1947 is the best indian beer with indian food I’ve come across and would certainly order it if in another establishment, whether mexican, soul, or just plain american grub. Their site is pretty cool too! http://www.1947beer.com

OK - this is a local beer that’s been popping up around NYC in Indian restaurants according to their website. I classed it as a lager but it’s probably closer to a bock or a dortmunder bock. Anyway, she’s available in bottles, pours a somewhat cloudy gold, aroma is malt and grassiness, as is taste with a bit of a sweet kick. I was about to order a standard Taj Mahal or Kingfisher but then they offered me this - complemented the flavors of indian food pretty well, I would have again in the circumstance.
