The best part about craft beer is that it allows you to experiment with some unique flavours to enhance the respective brew. Breweries across India offer some really unique and diverse craft beers, and some these sound too tempting to resist.
Masala Beer @ Lagom Kitchen + Brewery (Gurgaon): The Masala Beer at Lagom in Gurgaon brings a desi twist to a Saison (a fruity pale ale). Brewed with several indigenous Indian masalas, this craft beer is high on alcohol (7%) with a strong citrusy flavour and aroma.
Black Mamba @ Brewbot Eatery & Pub Brewery (Mumbai): Brewbot has become a craft beer hotspot in Mumbai, and the Black Mamba is one of the more popular brews on their menu. This British stout carries a strong flavour of chocolate and coffee, peppered with flaked oats.
Rauch Bier @ Doolally (Pune): Who would’ve thought that you could infuse the flavours of bacon and beer in one drink? The smoky Rauch Bier at Pune’s Doolally is a dream come true for bacon and beer lovers.
Smooth Criminal @ Arbor Brew Company (Bangalore): Bangalore is arguably India’s craft brew capital, with most number of microbreweries in India present in the Garden City. ABC is among the many that brews some deliciously flavoured craft beers, and one of them is the Smooth Criminal, infused with favours of honey and lavender.
Blueberry Beer @ Molecule Air Bar (Gurgaon): Molecular Air Bar in Gurgaon serves a blueberry flavoured beer. The Blueberry beer, as one would expect, is not all sweet. In fact, the brew packs in a dash of bitterness to balance the sweetness, ensuring that it stays true to its beer characteristic.
