In an absolute sexist move, a pub in Gurugram recently launched a new variety of an absurd beer, claiming it to be 'India's first female beer.'

In an assumptious and misogynist claim, the pub on social media advertised the new product as a 'non-bitter beer for women'

The sexist ad read:

"Women don’t generally like bitter beer and that is why they have introduced this lady-friendly beer that is sweet in taste. Gone are the days when beer was called a man’s drink ‘cause it’s bitter and strong’ cause now we have Beer cocktails that are perf for the pretty ladies too!”
