Beer & Banter on New Beer’s Eve

We’re celebrating one of the world’s favourite brews on the occasion of the (not quite) world famous (yet!) New Beer’s Eve, which falls on 06 April each year. We couldn’t tell you why, but we will be treating ourselves to a crisp perfectly poured pint anyhow. Answer all 15 questions below correctly and you could win US$50 in Karma vouchers – enough for a sold evening of beers and banter at one of our Karma venues!

      1. Hello PARAG DESAI. Absolutely! Whether it’s a crisp Corona with lime, a refreshing Hoegaarden, or a classic chilled Kingfisher—cheers to surviving the summer one sip at a time! Sun’s blazing, but thankfully so is the beer’s banter!

      1. Hello Judyline Pinto. Cheers! Whether it’s a cool Heineken, an icy Budweiser, a smooth Bira Blonde, or a hoppy chilled IPA he sun’s blazing, but luckily, the beer’s just as chilled!

      1. Hello Rajendra Yadav. Now that’s the spirit—because if there’s one thing New Beers Eve should be all about, the beer, cheer, and good vibes!

    6. Answer for second question is incorrect. It’d be chang instead of singha; it’s showing to the contrary. Please correct this at your end.

    7. This quiz was a bit tough. But in this sweltering heat, a chilled beer is most welcome.
      “There once was a beer in the sun,
      Whose summer was just about done.
      With a cold, frosty glass,
      It made the spirits all pass,
      A perfect drink for one
      Cheers to all and have fun.”

      1. Hello Jennifer Kumar, That quiz definitely had us sweating more than the sun did! But yes — nothing like a chilled beer to cool the brain cells down.

        “While answers played hide and seek,
        And questions were far from meek,
        We raised a cold brew,
        To the quiz and the crew,
        And made it the highlight of the week!”

        Cheers to good vibes, tricky quizzes, and well-earned sips!
