What is Bangalore Craft Crawl?

Bangalore Craft Crawl is a brewer-led, non-profit month-long challenge across 20 breweries featuring the Local Lager edition. Collect stamps by tasting each brewery’s focus lager, finish all 20, and claim a gift.

When does the challenge run?

The event window is 12:00 PM IST on 1 September 2025 through 11:59 PM IST on 30 September 2025. Stamps are valid only within this window.

How do I participate in Bangalore Craft Crawl?

Start at any participating brewery, pick up a free paper Passport, buy the brewery’s focus Local Lager pint, and get one official stamp per brewery. Visit all 20 unique breweries to complete the crawl.

Do I need to register or pay an entry fee?

No entry fee. You pay for your beer at each brewery.

What qualifies for a stamp?

Purchase the designated Local Lager pint and present the same Passport to staff for stamping. One stamp per brewery; repeat visits do not add stamps.

How do I redeem gifts after 20 stamps?

After collecting 20 unique stamps, visit a listed Gift Station before the challenge ends with your stamped Passport.

Is there an age requirement?

Yes. Participants must be 21+ with a valid government ID. Please drink responsibly and plan safe transport.

Can I do the breweries in any order or over multiple days?

Yes. Visit in any order and at your own pace, as long as all stamps are collected within the event window.
