Clear Yellow, Small Head, Little Lacing. Grainy Aroma. Slightly Sweet, corn, molt, light bitter finish. Fizzy and watery. Nothing too bad nothing too good. Drinkable, thirst quencher, does the job. Want something more, look someplace else. Pass it...

Clear gold with a busy, fizzy, white head that turns to soapy, thin bubbles instantly. Corn/rice malt scent. Taste is mild, sweet grain, Actually, quite decent for style and origin. Nothing overtly bad about it at all.

Weak hay, light chemical aroma. Crystal clear yellow, medium head. Honey and hay flavor, not strong. Tangy lemon notes also present. Fizzy. I’m sure most will dismiss this as just another weak pale lager, but I somehow enjoy these Indian lagers for their residual sweetness.

Bottle at a local Indian restaurant. Pours clear golden with a medium sized creamy head. Fair head retention. Aroma of grass, sweet malts and a bit of corn. The taste is grassy hops with a grainy finish. Thin bodied.

Purchased from Breeze Thru Liquors in Milwaukee, WI; enjoyed on the Sunday of Memorial Day weekend before a big storm and also before seeing Hangover 2. Appearance is a very light pale yellow with a thin bubbly white head. Aroma of water, corn, a bit grassy, very very light and really non-apparent. Taste is pretty bland, weird corn aftertaste that becomes slightly crisp. This borders on drinkable and \"why would I want to drink that?\", but more on the side of drinkable. If it’s the only option at an Indian restaurant, I may go for it.

Bottle. Not terrible for a macro lager. Quite pale yellow with a fairly sticky white head, which is actually pretty alright especially for the style. The aroma is a bit lemony and otherwise just sweet with malt/rice sugariness. Flavor has a little more of that lemon, though still rather sweet and very simple. Mouthfeel is a little slick in a bad way and also kinda chalky. It’s a decently refreshing beer and not bad for the style, but it’s still severely lacking in flavor and mainly relies on a simple ricey sweetness, like seltzer water flavored with beer and sugar.

Bottle at Chutney Marsala and amazing Indian restaurant in Irvington, NY. Pours a bud light yellow, however has a little spice and honey sweetness to it. So its a drinkable option if your going for Inidan, paired well with my Goat Vindalo.
