India is not a country normally associated with beer but during my visit there earlier this summer, I asked for the “local beer” , I was given a Kingfisher Lager and I was pleasantly surprised. Although the name goes back to 1857, the brand was reinvented by a jet setting Indian entrepreneur named Vijay Mallya.* Based on his success with beer he started Kingfisher Airline but it failed.**
I struggled to decide whether to give it a 14 or 15. It sure tasted good in the Indian heat, as long as its served cold.
