Oh I'd figured it out.
Knowing how good Americans are at geography, croak may have made a genuine error![]()
My kind of guy; believe the best in folks.

That looks interesting, heard of it before but never seen in stores over here. Is it good ? I wonder if Indians can brew a decent beer ?![]()
Interesting, assuming you have tried both, what's the difference between the domestic and export version ?It's decent. India is a mass consumption market. Very few takers for craft stuff. So they mostly stick with lagers. For a lager, Kingfisher is decent, though the domestics and export varieties taste very different.
If you are a whiskey fan, you should try Paul John Single Malt from Goa, India. Very highly rated!

And Special thanks for your whisky recommendation
I'm surprised that my favourite online whisky store provides the Paul John Single Malt. The bottle is about 40 Euros/43 USD. Think I will give it a try.
Are you travelling India frequently ?
Never made it to India although I always wanted to see Bombay/Mumbai. But my wife doesn't want to and she is
the boss![]()
Very impressive pictures, looks completely different from what usually comes to my mind when thinking of India.The domestic version tastes a bit more natural, whereas the export version feels like it has preservatives added to it, a bit artificial if you get my meaning. You'd not notice it unless you have drunk both versions though. Give it a shot if you manage to come by one.
For an Indian whiskey, John Paul is not popular in India. Just in the UKAnd I recommend sample/small tasters before you buy the whole bottle.
If you ever travel to India, don't ever go to major cities. In other countries the major cities are a tourist attraction in themselves (NY, LA, Paris, London, Amsterdam etc), but in India the major cities are just crap. They are not that clean, over crowded and not much to see innit.
I'd recommend Leh/Ladakh in Kashmir (near Kashmir but quite safe). You'd have to fly to Delhi (spend a day or two max for experience) and head out here. The jeep safari is just mind blowing.
India doesn't have a good reputation as a tourist destination, but show your wife Leh/ladakh and she'll be more willing.

Awesome pics XPack, yours?
Indian lagers generally aren't too bad, Tiger and Kingfisher being the well known ones, must admit i'm partial when having an indian meal
Sadly no. Just googled up pics, but my cousins did a trip there a couple of years before and the pics are just as awesome.
Tiger is from Singapore, right? I'll admit I've got a partiality to Asian lagers
Japan - Aasahi
China - Tsingtao
India - Kingfisher
Singapore - Tiger
Philippines - San Miguel
Thailand - Singha
are all awesome. Whenever I'm there, I usually stick with the local brew.
Edit: Did I mention here before that they have whiskey on tap on Japan?
you're right Tiger is from Singapore, i never knew that, but they do serve it in Indian restaurants hereSadly no. Just googled up pics, but my cousins did a trip there a couple of years before and the pics are just as awesome.

Allagash Hugh Malone, a Belgian style IPA. My new favourite!
Smooth blend, about 7.5% abv. Not too light or sweet as Belgian beer are expected to be. Great drink!
Weird name for the beer. An American/Belgian style IPA with an Irish name.
Here's another recent discovery of mine.
Imperial Old Rasputin Stout
Stronger than Guinness at 9% abv and as smooth though not as creamy, this is only of the best stouts I've drunk.
Hmmmmmm, that looks interesting and I found pretty good reviews on the web as well. Never heard of it before.You must be logged in to see this image or video!
Working on a case of this right now. It's a once a year brew, so you gotta get it when it is out.
