Malayali Beer – European Hops Meets Indian Rice Flakes

Bottles of Malayali Beer featuring a smooth lager brewed with European hops and Indian rice flakes.

Summary
Malayali Beer is a smooth, crisp lager that blends European hops with Indian rice flakes. Inspired by Kerala’s diverse culture, it pairs beautifully with seafood, curries, and grilled meats. Born from an innovative idea during economic challenges, this beer celebrates fusion and flavor.

A Beer That Bridges Two Worlds

Malayali Beer brings together two worlds in one refined lager. European hops give it a crisp, refreshing bitterness, while Indian rice flakes offer a light, smooth finish.

This balance makes it a perfect companion for Kerala’s rich food culture — from spicy fish curries to smoky grilled meats.

The name Malayali Beer pays tribute to the people of Kerala, known for their adaptability and creativity. The concept began during a difficult period when market disruptions threatened a shipment of rice flakes. Instead of waste, brewers turned challenge into innovation — crafting a new-age lager that connects continents and cuisines.
