Winemaking nation France added Mexico’s favourite tequila to the world’s staple beer to produce a stunning combination of sweet and bitter. Desperados beer is the first tequila flavoured beer in the world. It is a highly refreshing gold coloured and full-bodied lager beer with the extra kick and the exotic imagery of the tequila flavouring. It combines the refreshing bitter taste of beer with the sweetness of tequila. The main ingredients used to create this vibrant tequila beer are malted barley, corn, hops water and tequila. It is 5.9 per cent ABV so it is a bit stronger than most people are used to. Indians love lager and beer is the best accompaniment for Indian spices. So Desperados is actually your best bet while deciding what to have with anything from spicy jeera rasam to flavourful biryani. Give it time to grow on you as Desperados is a riot of flavours and you would want to spend time discovering them. The writer is F&B manager, Rajputana
