Description
This conglomerate magnate comes from India, and it runs its operations from the head office in the Karnataka State in UB City. United Breweries Holdings Limited (UB Group) is yet another company that is almost omnipresent in every field or business. It started out as a British brewery subsidiary only to become a market leader on the global scene. It also contributes significantly to the Indian economy with its different undertakings with million and billion worth turnovers.

In June 2021, Heineken N.V. increased their stake in the company to 61.5%, taking control of United Breweries.

4.9/10 — Appearance 4 Aroma 5 Flavor 5 Texture 6 Overall 4.5
Biggish coarse white head quickly shrinks. Pale yellow body with a little carbonation. Clean hoppy aroma with notes of apple. Taste is clean and crisp with sharp, well-defined hop notes. Watery aftertaste with notes of cardboard. Notes of chalk and some acidity. It’s decent, the hops are quite nice, but I could do without the cardboard, and a little more taste would be nice. (0.33l bottle.)

570ml bottle. Very pale body, close to water. Tick, small bubbled white head. Aroma is a bit perfumed and very weak. Flavor is rather sweet with a trace of hop (perfume). Almost no aftertaste at all. Great in accompaniment with a really hot curry dish, but nothing more.

570ml bottle. Very pale body, close to water. Tick, small bubbled white head. Aroma is a bit perfumed and very weak. Flavor is also dominated by perfume, not much – but there is not so much else to taste here. As always this is easy drinkable in accompaniment with a really hot curry dish, but so is also water.

Bottle. Golden clear color with a medium head. Very grassy aroma from the hops. Flavour of sweet malt, with a noteable of hops, ends up bitter.

Golden color. Smells softy; the taste is round as well, not aggressive, alcoholic of course. Quite common Strong Lager (or Malt Liquor?), even if not the worst.

Golden in color, white head is gone in a flash. The aroma is strong of malt and yeast. Taste is muted malt, grain, and metallic tones. Unimpressive, to say the least.

Bottle. Plain beer. Easy to drink, and thankfully not skunky. Lagers are not my favorite, but this one is actually very decent.
