Originally rated August 2005. Wow.... what a royal challenge to drink this one. Skunk from the green bottle’s ass. Ok... had some honey and grass nose too. Boring pale yellow with shit-all head and all the good other stuff. Slight syrupy mouthfeel. Flat as a Ford tire. The taste is not bad, grassy herbs. I was holding off on this one at the LCBO... now I know why.

Sample at Ale Wine & Spirits in Powell on 09/02/2011. Pours a clear pale yellow-gold color with a thin white head that evaporates quickly. Spotty lacing on the glass. Aroma of minerals, grainy malt and skunk. Light body with a flavor profile reminiscent of a waterbed. Mineral water, rubber/plastic and a bit of malt. The finish is watery and leaves an off sweetness. Not an enjoyable beer.

Sample at Ale Wine & Spirits in Powell on 09/02/2011. The beer is clear gold with a medium thin and fizzy white head that burns away rapidly. Spotty lacing on the glass. Grainy malt and a bit of skunk in the nose. Medium body with a sweet malty character that has grain and vegetable notes. Touches of hops in the background. The finish retains the grain and cereal malt theme. Not a very good beer.

Cool, india pale lager, IPL, heheh. Looks like pale lager. Smell is mild lager, no volatile hints of 7+%! Strong initial nearly cheap ice lager almost malt liquor feel. Fairly easy to takefor a rather high alky beer. Tdescription of this beer is quigte funny, heheh. Pretty good CO2 sizzle. Finish aproaches rude but is more civilized than american vresions, if they can be compared.

Purchased from a road side stall outside Delhi. An 8.0% can. Clear gold beer, frothy white head. Doesn’t taste like 8.0%. Crisp and dry. Just shows a little strength in the malty finish. Could not drink much of this!

650 mL bottle from Beer Run in Charlottesville, VA. Pours a clear golden color with a thin white head. Fair head retention and lacing. Aroma of tart grainy malts, mild skunk, banana, acetone. The taste is sweet grainy notes with a raw malt finish. Green banana notes with a bit of caramel. Slightly metallic finish. Thin-medium bodied. Not bad, but certainly typical of an Indian pale lager.

bottle from Taj Mahal (local Indian restaurant) - Pours clear dark yellow/gold with a small, fizzy white head. It smells of cereal malt and corn. The flavor is sweet and a bit on the boozy side. It’s acceptable but that’s about it.
