BLR Brewing Co., a microbrewery in South Bangalore and Project Mishram, a progressive Carnatic fusion band have launched their first collaborative brew Loco Coko Stout - a fusion of Filter Coffee with Cherries. It is inspired by the fusion of two of their songs, Loco Coko which is all about filter coffee and Sakura is about Cherry blossoms and spring and that’s how Loco Coko stout beer was introduced.

The Loco Coko stout has flavours of coffee and chocolate from the roasted malts infused with filter Kaapi and subtle hints of cherry, resulting in a beautifully balanced and uniquely delicious stout that is perfect for sipping on a cold winter night. This limited edition will be available only for a limited time at the JP Nagar branch of BLR Brewing Co.
Prasanna Kumar, Co-Founder, BLR Brewing Co. states, “We couldn’t be more excited about the 2nd edition of collaboration brew with a band. This collaboration brings us together to experiment with new beer styles. We have been collaborating with brewers across the world but this time it is with these young amazing artists”.
The brewery offers fresh seasonal brews by different brewers and breweries across India. It caters to different tastes and flavour preferences of beer lovers and is experimenting with local ingredients for crafting the perfect recipes so that one can taste what those ingredients are all about.
The space is spread across two floors, indoors and an imposing rooftop to enjoy the breezy weather of Bangalore. The brewery also has 6 in-house variants to offer - Belgian WIT, Farmhouse, Hefeweizen (a type of Weiss beer), Alphonso Ale, Nitro Stout and Nelson IPA brewed by Head Brewer Umang Nair, expertise in hand-crafted beers.
