22 oz. bottle. Hey, when popping the cap on a new country, I’m not too particular. Very light pilsener color. The previous rater is right, it’s got a slight greenish tinge. Fizzy, diminishing head. Rather oxidized and slightly smell. Taste is grainy and sweet, without much hop to balance it out. Beer pretty much just sits there, daring me to find something to like about it, but I can’t. Just a cheaply made beer from a country with no historical brewing tradition. Too bad.

Bottled. Bright golden, brief creamy head. Sweet, low on carbonation and with rich crystal malt character. Low bitterness. Clean and surprisingly good for an Indian lager.

Blond color. Strange aroma: purely bread, grains. Simple taste, with a light malty sweetness, and light hopping, not enough. Anyway, equilibrated. Easy, but can be drunk.

Pale straw color and small head. Ricey aroma with only a hint of spicy hops. Flavor is rather weak, ricey, and lacking any malt character, at least it has a hop tingle and finish, giving it some degree of balance.
