I picked this up at an Indian grocer in Greenville, and I think it's safe to say that this is one of the worst beverages that I have ever consumed. It tastes like tamarind-date chutney in a beverage bottle. A really fancy beverage bottle, for sure, but that does not make the drink any better. For those of you who have never had tamarind-date chutney, it is delicious, but it is incredibly savory and full of Indian spices. It makes for an excellent topping to samosas or other such delicious Indian foods, but it does NOT MAKE FOR A GOOD CARBONATED BEVERAGE. This is really bad. I felt nauseous after two drinks, which is something that almost never happens to me. I really tried, but I couldn't take it. It's just too heavy, and is way too close to drinking a sauce.
Verdict: Don't
I liked it. It was not like Ale but was good. It was like mixed herbs, spices carbonated drink. More fizzy and little less sweet would have been perfect.
