Taiwan’s NEVERMIND Wheat Beer Enters India’s Premium Beer Market

Published on June 19, 2026

India's premium beer segment is set to welcome a new international label with the launch of NEVERMIND Wheat Beer, a Taiwan-origin wheat beer designed for consumers seeking flavour, refreshment, and a contemporary drinking experience.

Crafted using wheat malt, barley malt, aromatic hops, and European ale yeast, NEVERMIND follows a top-fermentation brewing process and remains unfiltered to retain its natural haze, creamy foam, and smooth texture. The beer offers sweet malt aromas complemented by subtle fruit and clove notes, delivering a refreshing finish that balances flavour with easy drinkability.

Available in a 330 ml can with 5% ABV, NEVERMIND is best served chilled between 6°C and 8°C. The brand is built around the promise of "Smooth Haze. Creamy Foam. Refreshing Finish.", highlighting its approachable character and modern appeal.

Its distinctive gold and Olo-themed packaging has been designed to stand out on retail shelves while reinforcing its premium positioning. The brand aims to attract both experienced beer enthusiasts and consumers looking to explore international beer styles without the intensity often associated with craft beers.

The launch comes at a time when Indian consumers are increasingly showing interest in premium imports and diverse beverage experiences. Positioned between mainstream lagers and heavier craft offerings, NEVERMIND seeks to offer a balanced alternative that combines flavour, quality, and accessibility.

The brand plans to establish its presence across bars, lounges, restaurants, and premium retail outlets, targeting urban consumers who value authentic experiences and globally inspired products.

Commenting on the launch, Mr. Amit Goel, Director, Rad Elan, said:

"NEVERMIND is more than just a beer, it embodies a carefree spirit, shared moments with friends and a contemporary lifestyle. As Indian consumers continue to explore premium imports and international beer styles, we believe NEVERMIND is uniquely positioned to appeal to those seeking flavour, quality and easy drinkability. Our vision is to create a brand that feels equally at home during social gatherings, casual dining experiences and vibrant nightlife occasions."

With its smooth profile and refreshing taste, NEVERMIND aims to carve a niche in India's growing premium beer category while introducing consumers to a contemporary wheat beer experience inspired by international brewing traditions.

NEVERMIND Wheat Beer will soon be available across India.


Father’s Day 2026: Serious Slice Declares “The First Slice is His”

Father’s Day 2026: Serious Slice Declares “The First Slice is His”

This Father’s Day, Serious Slice is rewriting the rules of the family table with a simple idea “The First Slice is His.” The Bengaluru-based pizza destination is turning Father’s Day 2026 into a warm, relaxed, and slightly playful celebration that places dads right at the centre of the dining experience.

Across its Cunningham Road and RR Nagar outlets, the restaurant is moving away from formal set menus and instead focusing on comfort, familiarity, and a sense of easy celebration. The idea is straightforward: give fathers a day where they are not just present at the table, but properly celebrated.

From the moment guests arrive, the experience is designed to feel personal. Tables will feature “Reserved for Dad” placards, along with handwritten-style notes that add a simple, human touch to the celebration. Live acoustic music from local artists sets a relaxed mood, making the space feel more like a neighbourhood gathering than a curated event.

The highlight of the celebration is the “First Slice” House Rule. As part of this playful initiative, the first pizza slice loaded generously with toppings is served directly to the father at the table before anyone else. It’s a small but symbolic gesture that flips the usual dining hierarchy and ensures dads get the first bite of the meal they usually help organise.

The menu itself stays true to Serious Slice’s signature approach, fresh, indulgent, and unpretentious. Guests can expect a casual dining experience built around sharing, laughter, and comfort food that brings families together without overcomplication.

With its mix of humour, warmth, and thoughtful detail, Serious Slice’s Father’s Day celebration focuses less on extravagance and more on appreciation. It’s a reminder that sometimes the simplest gestures, a slice served first, a note of thanks, or a shared laugh can make the biggest impact.

This Father’s Day, ITC Limited’s Sunfeast Baked Creations is celebrating fathers with an emotional campaign titled ‘A Briefcase of Love’, highlighting the often-unspoken ways in which fathers express their love through responsibility, dedication, and constant support.

At the heart of the campaign is the briefcase, a familiar object that symbolises much more than work. According to the brand, it represents the responsibilities, dreams, sacrifices, and unwavering commitment that fathers carry throughout their lives for the well-being of their families.

Bringing this concept to life is the Father’s Day Couverture Chocolate Briefcase Cake, a handcrafted creation designed in the shape of a chocolate briefcase. The dessert features layers of rich chocolate sponge, caramel diplomat cream, and a crunchy texture, creating a meaningful tribute to fatherhood while offering an indulgent culinary experience.

The special Father’s Day collection also includes Dad’s Favourite Pistachio Chocolate Pastry, featuring chocolate sponge layered with pistachio mousse and finished with an edible moustache, along with the Belgian Chocolate Brownie (No Added Sugar), crafted for those seeking a more mindful dessert option without compromising on flavour.

Extending beyond its product offerings, the campaign is supported by a digital film and social media storytelling that explore the emotional significance of a father’s briefcase, not merely as an accessory, but as a symbol of cherished memories, values, and countless acts of love that often go unnoticed.

With ‘A Briefcase of Love’, Sunfeast Baked Creations encourages people to look beyond everyday objects and recognise the quiet sacrifices that define fatherhood. The Father’s Day collection is currently available across Bengaluru, Mumbai, Pune, Chennai, and Hyderabad through leading food delivery platforms.
