Part 1 Intro of a Series Covering Brewers & Pubs of North Bangalore
Bangalore is a fantasy land of freedom and a practical dream for small town teenagers. I was one of them in my final school years. Whenever watching Hollywood films which celebrate American city culture, I never thought about going there. I wanted to be in Bangalore. I fell in love with Bangalore at first sight when I came for a family tour. I didn’t know how it happened. Now I realize that we all have a love-hate relationship with this inevitable city and its world of breweries and pubs where conversations ( even if music is too loud), first dates, breakups, love triangles, pitches, patches and everything that is not allowed in your office and our cute conservative hometown!
Ok. For serious guys, I will tell you some authentic stuff.
India’s beer culture has started changing fast in recent years. Old days were only about mass-produced lagers from well-known or brand breweries. The craft beer movement changed everything so fast. Bangalore led that movement to a revolution. Craft breweries, microbreweries, and brewpubs have sprouted up across the city, offering an array of innovative and unique brews. Lot of international mixologists and brew masters from America and other places started coming here and working just behind the walls of your pubs near me/you.
I will introduce them to you later in our video series.

Beer Tech and Tech City; How Bangalore Mixed Both ?
The strong presence of technology companies in Bangalore has indirectly contributed to the city’s beer culture.

Bangaloreans use these platforms to connect, share their beer experiences, and discover new brews.
