Never forget Yasphal, an elephant in musth, blocking the Bombay railroad in 1898 holding the East India Train Company to ransom. As the rainy season set in, only a barrel of the finest IPA could calm this testy bull. Since known as the Bombay Bastard. A nickname befitting this monsoon of a beer – Built to conquer the thirst that 35 degrees and torrential rains will summon. Yasphal knew..

Heavy bitters paired with sweet, roasty maltiness and sticky caramel tones. Wrapped together in a mysterious hazy profile with a hint of sea salt on the end of the palate that keeps you coming back for more – whatever the season.
