A popular New York-based beer brand, Sixpoint brewery now sells pints called Bengali. Launched in 2004 as a tribute to the Royal Bengali Tiger, the beer's name was later changed to just Bengali in 2014. One of the many beers at their place, the orange and white colours of the beer reminded its creators of the native Bengali cat.
A report revealed that the beer is rated highly as an IPA (India Pale Ale), making Sixpoint a good brand. Even with its bitter taste, Bengali is said to have packed a punch and has almost no sedimentation. Beer connoisseur Henry Lawson described the beer on his Instagram, saying, “The Bengali tiger beer smells like a small Parisian stall selling fresh fruit and flowers in the middle of a pine forest. It tastes grassier than the contents of that jar on my brother's bedside table with some caramel, fruit and resin blended in for added complexity. These fresh and balanced flavours are displayed through the carbonation, bitterness, and mouthfeel of any good IPA. It's a majestic creature!”
