Restaurant India News: Ironhill India Blends Beer and Fine Dining with Launch of The Alchemy Table

Ironhill India, the world’s largest microbrewery chain, has introduced a new dining format called The Alchemy Table. The first edition was held earlier this week at Ironhill Marathahalli, bringing together a small group of food enthusiasts, influencers, and beer lovers for an evening of chef-curated pairings, interactive storytelling, and a closer look at the brewing process.

The event was led by Chef Syamal Raju Annamneedi, Corporate Chef at Ironhill India, and Soundera Rajan, Corporate Brewmaster. The duo walked guests through a structured tasting session, combining signature and upcoming craft brews with a specially designed multi-course menu. Each dish was presented in small, focused portions, with the intent of highlighting flavors that complemented the beer selections while showcasing the role of umami in enhancing the overall experience.

In addition to the curated menu, guests participated in an interactive session with the chef and brewmaster, touring the brewery and learning about brewing techniques, ingredient sourcing, and pairing strategies. The session positioned The Alchemy Table as more than a meal, framing it as an immersive platform where brewing and gastronomy intersect.

The evening's design reinforced this positioning. Table settings incorporated gold accents, wood, candles, and celestial-inspired motifs, while hops used in the beers were displayed with detailed placards. Service was structured to ensure smooth transitions between courses and pairings, creating a guided dining format centered on knowledge-sharing as much as consumption.

Teja Chekuri, Managing Partner, Ironhill India, explained, “With The Alchemy Table, our vision is to go beyond dining and create an immersive experience where every dish is thoughtfully paired, every pint reflects our spirit of innovation, and every interaction deepens appreciation for the craft. Having built the world’s largest brewery, we’ve seen firsthand how food and beer can spark connection and conversation. The response has been incredible, and we look forward to curating this experience month after month.”

The second edition of The Alchemy Table will be held on September 20 and 21, 2025, at Ironhill Marathahalli and Ironhill Kanakapura. It will feature new brews, fresh pairings, and updated menus, reinforcing Ironhill India’s positioning as a brand focused on experiential dining and innovative hospitality formats.
