Bengaluru’s latest addition to its vibrant beer and dining culture, ICB-Indian Craft Brewery, has opened its doors, promising to redefine the craft beer experience in India. Situated in the heart of Manyata Tech Park Nagavara, this expansive 1,500-seater microbrewery covers two acres and combines India’s ancient brewing traditions with modern, global influences.
A Unique Indian Craft Beer Experience ICB stands out by deeply integrating India's cultural heritage, indigenous ingredients, and rich culinary flavors into its brewing process. According to Gopi Chand Cherukuri, co-founder of ICB, the microbrewery aims to reinvent craft beer in India. "With our dedicated craftsmanship and a team of seasoned brewmasters, including a master brewer from Costa Rica, and culinary experts, we’ve perfected the art of creating unique flavors that are global and deeply rooted in India’s rich history," he said.
Cultural Zones to Explore The brewery’s architecture is designed with the COAST philosophy in mind—Culture, Opinion, Art, Sustainability, and Taste. This approach invites guests to explore different experiential spaces known as zones, each curated to reflect ICB’s Indian roots while providing a sense of belonging and cultural connection. The first zone is already open, and the second zone is scheduled to launch in January 2025.
Innovative Brews and Signature Offerings ICB’s brewing philosophy is grounded in deep research into India’s diverse culinary landscape. The microbrewery has established a dedicated R&D center in Belgium for driving beer innovations, ensuring that every beer served is a result of global expertise and local inspiration. One of its signature offerings is Ramanujan, a range of premium non-alcoholic beers named in homage to the legendary Indian mathematician Srinivasa Ramanujan.
The Future of Indian Craft Beer ICB’s impact goes beyond its beers. It is set to become a cultural hotspot, hosting curated pop-up experiences led by renowned chefs. Beginning next month, these pop-ups will feature royal heirloom recipes passed down by Maharajas from across India, offering diners an exclusive opportunity to savor traditional recipes from India’s royal kitchens.
The New Face of Bengaluru’s Dining Culture ICB-Indian Craft Brewery promises to be a game-changer in Bengaluru’s beer and dining scene, offering a fresh and exciting experience for beer lovers, food enthusiasts, and cultural explorers alike.
