BeeYoung, India’s first crafted strong beer brand, has once again raised a toast on the global stage by clinching top honors at the Asia Beer Challenge 2025. The innovative BeeYoung Beyond captured the Gold Medal, while the flagship BeeYoung Crafted Strong Beer secured Silver.
More than just awards, this achievement is a celebration of the passion, creativity, and dedication that drive BeeYoung every day, proving that an Indian homegrown brand can stand tall among the world’s finest brewers.
The Asia Beer Challenge is one of the region’s most respected competitions, with entries judged by leading beer buyers, importers, and distributors from across Asia. Winning here means more than just recognition; it signals true global acceptance and elevates BeeYoung’s standing within the dynamic international craft beer scene.
Abhinav Jindal, founder & CEO of Kimaya Himalayan Beverages, said, “This is a proud moment for all of us at BeeYoung. These awards are not just about the liquid in the bottle. They reflect the creativity, hard work, and relentless dedication our team puts in every day. Our dream has always been to craft beers that redefine India’s drinking experience, and wins like these reassure us that we’re on the right path.”
BeeYoung Beyond, India’s first International Style Crafted Pilsner, embodies the brand’s innovative spirit. Brewed with Smoked Belgian Specialty Malt and Doon Basmati Rice from Uttarakhand, it delivers an earthy, spicy, and floral taste wrapped in a velvety-smooth finish, crafted for discerning beer enthusiasts who crave something unique.
On the other hand, the BeeYoung Crafted Strong Beer, the flagship offering, has won hearts for its refreshing citrus notes, silky texture, and consistent quality, distinguishing it from conventional strong lagers found in the market.
This latest recognition follows BeeYoung’s impressive accomplishments at the European Beer Challenge 2025, further solidifying its reputation as one of India’s most awarded craft beer brands. With every new win, BeeYoung isn’t just collecting medals; it’s raising the flag for Indian craft beer on the global stage.
