It looks the part, and there’s a fair bit heading in the right direction. Just let down by a kinda weird snappiness.that seems way beyond the coriander. Maybe just way too much of it. I don’t know, but still the beers by Yeastern are far and above the best thing you can drink here in Shillong.

Certainly surprised to see this here. Looks decent enough with a dark brown colour and a creamy tan head. When you give it a sniff it almost comes across a little pastry. But I think it’s more like when you have some of those export Guinesses. It’s not bad, a little too sweet and unbalanced but better than expected in these parts.

When I ordered this I didn’t realize it was a strong lager, nor did I realize it was a rice lager. Serves me right for not reading the menu! The thing is, it’s actually not bad. Nice grassy hop character going on that I wasn’t expecting. I’d strongly prefer 5% but hey, can’t complain
