Best Beer in Pune

Page 1

Best bar in Pune and it’s for everyone Just a decade ago, pubs and ‘action’ in Pune was restricted to some of the more ‘hip’ localities. That’s where the city used to head out to, over the weekends and holidays. But now, Pune has become a true partying city, with some of the best bar in Pune. There are pubs that serve beer and other drinks, pubs that play cutting edge music, pubs that offer ‘deals’ to the millennials out to have a good time. There’s a pub or bar on every main road and some nice, cosy ones tucked away in the inner lanes. But which is the best pub in Pune? Well, tastes vary. To each her or his own. The beer, ambience, the food and the music make it place visiting a place again and again. Some prefer a vibrant and boisterous place, others, a quieter, classy atmosphere. But the best pub in Koregaon Park and the best pub in Baner are uncontested: it is Efiingut. With the best craft beers in Pune, the most lip-smacking food and the most chilled ambience, no wonder it’s the favourite bar of the ‘with it’ set. Blessed with the divine – or devilish – presence of its mascot Borrel (that’s the name of the bearded dude) Effingut offers a wide range of craft beers from ciders to ales, from lagers to stouts. There are sweet variants and bitter ones that range from the mildly bitter to nearly karela level bitter. The pub prides itself on its delicious food, the menu offers a wide variety of starters to desserts. But let’s be honest here: people visit Effingut for the beers. And the pub offers a staggering array of beers of differing IBUs that reflect the bitterness of the beers. The lower the IBU, the less bitter the beer, and vice versa. Thus ciders and meads are typically sweet (and hence have a low IBU) whereas some of the stouts and ales are quite bitter. All the beers are Effingut are quite special, but the crowd has its favourites: Traditional English Ale: For an authentic English Ale experience, this earthy flavour is a perfect selection. It has just the right amount of crisp bitterness mixed with spicy hop flavours. Dunkelweizen: The Dunkelweizen is a German delight characterized by its dark colour and malty richness. The creamy and full-bodied brew has the comforting flavour of banana and cloves, which leaves you feeling euphoric. Like most weizen-style beers, it has a grainy and bready flavour underlying the beer. Hefeweizen: Awarded as India’s best, this Hefeweizen is an escape from the heat outside. The roots of this beer lie in Bavaria and date all the way back to the middle-age. Its light and frothy texture has been a favourite ever since. The taste of banana, cloves and a hint of bubblegum from the yeast fermentation is a German delight. Peach Ginger Mead : Known to be the oldest drink to mankind, even finding mentions in the ancient Hindu scriptures, this mead is made with 100% organic honey collected ourselves from the foothills of the Himalayas; it is beautifully balanced with lemon and a zing of ginger. A perfect drink for a hot summer day! Marzen:
