SOMA
Street Team.
India's first non-alcoholic craft brewery is launching in Bangalore — and somebody has to be the person who put it on the map at their campus. First tastes, free cans, direct line to the founders. That somebody could extremely be you.
The deal.
no fine print energyFirst tastes. Before anyone.
The street team drinks the first batch before Bangalore does — free cans, straight from the brewery, honest opinions expected in return.
Free cans + merch before it's merch
Sticker sheets, tees, the works — you get the drop before the drop exists. Founding-crew status is permanent.
Bring SOMA to your scene
Campus fest, run club, house gig, board-game night — you point, we show up with a cooler and stickers. You're the plug, we do the lifting.
A direct line to the founders
One WhatsApp thread, actual humans. What we brew next, where we sample next, what the merch looks like — the crew gets a say.
Who it's for: 18+ undergrads, postgrads, and first-jobbers in Bangalore who already run a scene — a run club, a fest committee, a gig circle, a board-game table — and want first access to a brewery being built in their city.
How it works. Three steps, zero homework.
Apply below
Two minutes. Tell us who you are, where you are, and what your scene is — run club, fests, gigs, whatever you're actually into.
We talk, you taste
A founder reads every application and replies within a few days. If it clicks, your first cans are on us.
You make it a thing
Host a tasting at your fest, bring cans to your run club, get SOMA on the table at game night. We handle stock, coolers, and permissions — you bring the people.
Questions people actually ask.
Do I have to be 18+?+
Yes — no exceptions. The street team is open to undergrads, postgrads, and first-jobbers who are 18 or older. SOMA is non-alcoholic (<0.5% ABV), but it's an adult drink and we treat it like one.
Do I need to not drink?+
Absolutely not — this isn't about that. SOMA isn't a sobriety club; it's a beer for the occasions where you want the beer and not the hangover. What you drink the rest of the time is your business.
Is this a paid gig?+
It's not a salary. You get free cans, merch, first access to everything we do, and founding-crew status. If you're after a part-time job, this isn't that — if you're after being early to something, it very much is.
I'm not in Bangalore. Can I still join?+
Batch one is Bangalore-only, so the street team starts here too. Apply anyway and tell us your city — you'll be first in line when we expand.
What actually happens at a sampling?+
We set up a cooler of cold cans at your fest, run club, gig, or café hangout. People taste, keep the stickers, and scan a QR if they want in on the launch. You host; we handle everything else, including venue permission.
Apply. Right here.
