A Beer Trial, 3 sessions where one can Meet-the-Brewer, coupled with a premier experience with the International Brewer at Powai’s only microbrewery
by Suman Gupta
February 2020, Mumbai: For the first time ever, Crafters Taphouse welcomes a female international brewer as part of the ‘Crafters Movement’ – the brewery’s talent exchange programme – wherein brewers from different parts of the world are invited to prepare their signature styles in India, with ingredients from the brewer’s homeland and/or locally sourced locally. This edition will host renowned Indiana based brewer Allison Higi, a popular name in the American beer industry and a member of the Pink Boots Society, an International NGO that encourages women to be part of the brewing profession, especially in creating craft beer.
Allison’s tour will involve her travel within India to experiment with locals ingredients to create an all new India inspired brew, besides introducing a debut brew with ingredients she has sourced from her hometown. This edition will introduce two brews – one with Dry Figs local to Maharashtra and the other with Cantaloupes that are staple to Indiana – both of which blend extremely well with her preferred brew style. Her visit to India will culminate on March 10, 2020 and will also include her visits to various spaces in Mumbai where she will host some exclusive two hour long ‘Meet-the-Brewer’ sessions as per the schedule mentioned below.
