In an exciting cross-continental collaboration, Bira 91, India's leading name in craft beer, has joined forces with New Belgium Brewing, a trailblazer in the American craft brewing scene, to launch a unique beer that's sure to intrigue beer aficionados and culinary adventurers alike. Dubbed 'Chutney Sour', this innovative brew is a nod to the rich culinary heritage of India and the craft beer innovation Colorado is known for.

'Chutney Sour' isn't just any beer; it's a creative concoction that marries the tangy, complex flavours of tamarind – a staple in Indian chutneys and curries – with the brewing excellence of a Belgian-style Dubbel, a signature of New Belgium Brewery. This fusion beer made its much-anticipated debut in the taprooms of both companies, with Bira 91 hosting the launch in Bengaluru and Delhi-NCR, India, and New Belgium welcoming beer lovers in Fort Collins, Colorado.

The timing of the release couldn't be more perfect, aligning with the vibrant Indian Spring festival of Holi, known for its lively celebrations and splash of colours. The 'Chutney Sour' aims to add a splash of flavour to the festivities, offering a unique taste experience that stands out in the craft beer landscape.

Ankur Jain, Founder and CEO of Bira 91, expressed his enthusiasm about the collaboration, stating, "We’re thrilled to collaborate with New Belgium Brewing. The idea of combining a Belgian Sour Ale with Tamarind to create a 'Chutney Sour' started as a wild thought but ended up as a stroke of genius. We believe this limited release will be a delightful surprise for everyone who tries it."

This special brew is a result of a single brewing cycle and will be available exclusively in the taprooms of Bira 91 and New Belgium Brewing until the last drop is savoured. Beer lovers and curious tasters are encouraged to make their way to these locations to experience the 'Chutney Sour' while it lasts.

This collaboration not only showcases the innovative spirit of Bira 91 and New Belgium Brewing but also highlights the potential for creative fusion in the craft beer industry, bridging flavours and traditions from different corners of the world. 'Chutney Sour' is more than just a beer; it's a celebration of culture, innovation, and the joy of discovery.
