I’d eat at Indian restaurants at least twice a week, and I’d always get a beer with my meal. The lagers were always too gassy, though, and a pale ale was too bitter. I wanted a beer that had the refreshment of a lager and the coolness of a pale ale – one that could go perfectly with any food, not just a curry.” Lord Bilimoria worked with a master brewer, who had learned the art of brewing pilsner in Prague, to come up with a beer that would be a perfect match for Indian curries. “We spent forever perfecting the recipe and balancing all of the flavours – today we’d probably be the world’s best craft beer brand, but our focus was on getting into restaurants.” Beer pong – One of the world's most famous drinking games, beer pong involves throwing ping pong balls from one end of a table to the other, and trying to land the ball in your opponent's cup.
