Rad Elan is delighted to announce the growing footprint of Gold Medal Taiwan Beer in India. What began with an enthusiastic response in Chennai has now expanded into Delhi, Noida, Gurugram, Uttar Pradesh, and Mumbai, where this award-winning Asian lager is fast becoming a favourite among Indian beer enthusiasts.
Gold Medal Taiwan Beer carries the legacy of Formosa Rice, a grain once offered as a tribute to emperors. This unique ingredient gives the beer a clean, refreshing taste that feels light on the palate while retaining the depth and richness of malt. Unlike many heavy 100% malt beers, Gold Medal strikes a balance that suits Indian preferences, crisp, smooth, and flavourful without being overwhelming.
Globally, the beer has earned high recognition, including the International Monde Selection Gold Award (1997) and honours at the Brewing Industry International Awards (2002). Its proud name, Gold Medal, stands as a tribute to this legacy of craftsmanship and quality.
“India is a market where global flavours are welcomed, but they must connect with local taste,” said Mr. Amit Goel, Managing Director, Rad Elan. “Gold Medal Taiwan Beer has that rare ability to blend Asian authenticity with an experience that feels naturally suited to Indian occasions, whether it’s pairing with spicy food, enjoying at a gathering, or simply relaxing after work. The response we’ve seen outside Chennai proves how well it resonates with Indian consumers.”
With its glowing amber colour, subtle aroma, and smooth finish, Gold Medal Taiwan Beer is more than just a beverage, it is a cultural bridge, connecting Asian heritage with Indian taste. Now available through select retailers and hospitality partners, it is quickly becoming the beer of choice for those who value authenticity with a modern edge.

Udaipur Marriott Hotel has unveiled Ayana, its newest rooftop dining destination, offering guests a transcendent culinary journey set against the shimmering lakes and Aravalli Hills. True to its name, which means “the path,” Ayana guides diners through an immersive experience that begins with its serene poolside ambiance and culminates with indulgent desserts.
The restaurant’s design harmoniously blends contemporary Indian aesthetics with natural materials, oversized cushions, glowing lanterns, and curated world music, creating an atmosphere that is both vibrant and serene. The panoramic rooftop views add a magical dimension to every visit.
Ayana’s menu celebrates India’s royal culinary legacy, drawing inspiration from the Northwest Frontier and the regal kitchens of Rajasthan. Each dish is crafted with precision, honouring its origins while presenting a modern twist. The bar complements the menu with artisanal cocktails infused with Indian botanicals, spices, and local flavours, alongside a curated selection of fine wines and craft beers.
Designed for intimate dinners, celebratory gatherings, and exclusive events, Ayana offers a mix of communal seating, semi-private corners, and open decks. The restaurant is also deeply committed to sustainability, prioritizing locally sourced seasonal produce, plant-forward innovations, minimal food waste, energy-efficient kitchens, and elimination of single-use plastics.
Executive Chef Mohit Mishra commented on the launch:
“We are thrilled to officially welcome guests to Ayana. Our vision was to create more than just a restaurant, we wanted to craft a journey where each dish tells a story, each flavour evokes tradition, and every detail reflects India’s rich culinary heritage.”
Vaibhav Sagar, General Manager, added:
“Ayana is designed to be an immersive experience, not just a dining venue. From the sweeping rooftop views to the thoughtfully curated menu and serene yet vibrant ambiance, every element has been meticulously crafted to create lasting memories for both travellers and locals seeking a refined night out.”
Ayana promises to be a destination for culinary discovery, offering diners a seamless blend of tradition, innovation, and unforgettable experiences atop one of Udaipur’s most scenic rooftops.

We've created a space where Straight-line Cuisine comes to life and the abundance of India's culinary heritage unfolds through heirloom recipes passed down through generations. Here, every gathering becomes an opportunity to foster deeper bonds with loved ones.
