Biryani, Bheja & Beer At Lizard King Brewing Co.

Introducing a bold new weekly special every Thursday.

India 2026, GOA

Lizard King Brewing Co., Goa’s newest craft brewery, proudly launches Biryani, Bheja & Beer — a weekly food + beer experience celebrating two iconic Indian dishes, biryani and bheja fry, paired with freshly brewed craft beers.

This is not fusion, not elevated plating, and not a modern twist.
It’s heritage flavours done honestly — the richness of Indian slow-cooking meeting the freshness of small-batch craft beer.

What to Expect

  • Hyderabadi Mutton & Chicken Biryani cooked traditionally by a Master Chef from Hyderabad

  • Classic Bheja Fry

  • Signature craft brews including Apple Cider, Pilsner, Stout and more

  • Limited portions weekly — first-come, first-served

  • An all-day, food-led, flavour-forward Thursday

Why It Works

Indian comfort food is rarely paired thoughtfully with great craft beer.
Biryani, Bheja & Beer unites two strong culinary traditions: the depth and intensity of Indian spices with the clean, crisp finish of small-batch brews.

It’s a simple idea, executed honestly — already a local favourite during trials at the brewery.

The Authenticity

  • Hyderabadi Biryani: cooked the traditional dum way by a chef from Hyderabad — kachchi gosht marinated overnight, layered with long-grain basmati, whole spices, birista, saffron, and slow-cooked in a sealed handi.

  • Bheja Fry: fresh lamb brain cooked with minimal masala on high heat, finished with black pepper and coriander — the way it’s made in old Hyderabad.

No shortcuts. No restaurant-style gravies. Just honest technique.

A Note from George Jacob

“We didn’t want to overthink it — great biryani, classic bheja, cold craft beer. It’s bold, comforting, and exactly the kind of food we love pairing with our brews,”
— George Jacob, Brewer & Co-Founder
