Early Entrants and Inspiration:

Pioneers in the ice cream business in India, such as Lake View, Corner House, Naturals, and Ideal ice creams are well-established and emerging brands. These esteemed establishments have paved the way for innovation and set high standards for the industry. Longboat Microbrewery takes inspiration from its success. We also take extreme pride in our beers which is our core product and build upon it by introducing beer-infused ice creams, a concept that combines the craftsmanship of brewing with the artistry of ice cream making. Being a microbrewery we want people to connect with our beers as much as possible, we have also created a beer-infused dessert called Beeramisu which is a Longboat exclusive with our in-house crafted stout beer infused with the famous traditional tiramisu.

Unveiling Unique Flavors:

Longboat Microbrewery's beer ice creams promise a delightful and distinctive taste experience. By expertly infusing their popular brews like Belgian Wit, Hefeweizen and Mango Wheat beers into creamy, frozen treats, Longboat creates a harmonious balance of flavours that will captivate beer enthusiasts and ice cream lovers alike. The result is a range of indulgent beer ice creams that showcase Longboat's commitment to quality and innovation. Since we are a microbrewery and a lot of craft elements are involved in the beer-making process we keep experimenting with different seasonal flavours of beers as well for example the guava saison, and watermelon wit, so we can introduce seasonal special beers to our range of ice creams accordingly.

Craftsmanship and Sampling Stage:

"The idea of creating beer ice creams was brewing in my mind long before we even set up Longboat Microbrewery. I wanted to combine the craft elements of our beer-making process with the delightful experience of ice cream. It's an innovation that allows us to push boundaries and offer our customers a unique taste sensation. With our range of indulgent beer ice creams, we are setting new trends in India and captivating both beer enthusiasts and ice cream lovers alike." - Vinay Chandrashekar, Co-founder, Longboat Microbrewery.
