If you’re a hardcore beer fan, chances of finding you sipping a cocktail at a bar is, well, negligible. But what if you could have a cocktail, and not breach your beer loyalty at the same time? Yes, beer cocktails are really a thing and they’re available right here in Mumbai! Here are five of them which you cannot afford to miss:
The Korner House Mule @ The Korner House: Beginning with the most expensive beer cocktail on this list, the Korner House Mule at this hot-spot in Bandra, packs in a delectable concoction of vodka, fresh ginger and lager beer. Too much for a cocktail in terms of price, you would imagine, but the Mule is worth trying out once at least.
Price: INR 650 without taxes
Where?: 21, Union Park, Khar West, Khar, Mumbai
Deconstructed Moscow Mule @ Colaba Social: Another beer cocktail inspired by the Mule, there are a couple of versions of this must-have drink at arguably the best Social in Mumbai. The Deconstructed Moscow Mule comes in two variations, the first being with Smirnoff and Ginger Ale, and the second one being with Smirnoff, Ketal One Vodka and Ginger Ale. If you’re in a mood to shell out a little more, the Ketal One version is absolutely worth it.
Price: INR 295 without taxes and INR 475 without taxes (with Ketal One)
Where?: 4, Ground Floor, Glen Rose Building, Behind Taj Mahal Palace, Apollo Bunder, Colaba
Beergita @ Kaitlyn’s Beer Garden: Pronouncing this drink may sound odd in your head, but that doesn’t stop this uncanny sounding beer cocktail from being a perfect amalgamation of a beer and a Margarita. The Beergita (beer, vodka, strawberry crush, kiwi crush and peach) at Kaitlyn’s Beer Garden is an experience in itself.
Price: INR 425 without taxes
Where?: 201-202, Khan House, Hill Road, Bandra West
White Rhino Bongtail @ Raasta: This place has quickly moved up the ladder to become one of the most happening places in Khar. Raasta introduced the now famous ‘Bongtail’ to us, and no, it has nothing to do with Bengalis. Try out the White Rhino Bongtail, a liquid universe in its own, comprising vodka, whiskey, tequila, gin, and white rum topped with beer.
Price: INR 450 without taxes
Where?: 4/5 Floor, Rohan Plaza, Ram Krishan Nagar, Road No. 5, Khar
Brody’s Bourbon and Honey Beer @ The Little Door: The Little Door is an extremely popular hang-out spot in Andheri West, but a very simple beer cocktail often gets ignored by most people who visit this place. Brody’s Bourbon and Honey Beer is a simple amalgamation of Bourbon Whiskey and a honey flavoured beer, which is the perfect companion for a Sunday brunch.
Price: INR 450 without taxes
Where? B 31, Ground Floor, Shree Siddhivinayak Plaza, New Link Road, Veera Desai Area
