As India’s craft beer culture grows, so does the curiosity around pairing beer with food that suits the Indian taste spectrum. No longer just a refreshing beverage, beer is becoming a flavorful companion to a variety of dishes from classic tandoori platters to contemporary bar bites. Whether you’re sipping a bold brew or a crisp lager, the right pairing can elevate both the drink and the dish. Here’s a guide to pairing popular beers with Indian and global flavors for a truly modern and delicious experience.
Lone Wolf Wild
Bold, malty, and intense, Lone Wolf Wild is a high-ABV brew made for hearty meals.
Pair it with slow-cooked mutton rogan josh, smoky tandoori kebabs, or double-stacked burgers with sharp cheese. It also complements Korean-style glazed wings, with its depth enhancing spice-forward and umami-rich dishes. Ideal for those who treat beer as part of the dining ritual, not just a side drink.
Simba Lager
With its light body and crisp finish, Simba Lager is perfect for bold, spicy starters.
It refreshes the palate when paired with sticky Korean fried chicken, chili garlic momos, or crispy masala fries, allowing the flavors of the food to shine while offering a balanced contrast.
Medusa Air
A smooth, mid-strength lager, Medusa Air is easygoing but flavourful.
Best enjoyed with buttery chicken croissants, whether it’s pepper chicken or a creamy tikka filling. It’s a great pairing for brunch, evening snacks, or light bites, offering balance without heaviness.
STOK Strong
Robust and malty with hints of caramel, STOK Strong is built for bold flavors.
Enjoy it with spicy Seekh Kebabs, Keema Pav, or Indo-Chinese favourites like chili chicken and Gobi Manchurian. For vegetarians, Achari Paneer and Tandoori Mushrooms bring out the beer’s sweet-spice harmony.
