This week (Monday-Sunday) it’s a refreshing Belgian wheat beer: Hoegaarden [4.9%] – RMB 25

Wuhou District, Jinxiu Road 34-7 (below Zongbei International)

Nice, one of my favorite beers back in college. Chinese people definitely need to be exposed to better beer, considering they think Heineken is classy and whatnot.

Hi Danny,

Actually the Chinese learn quickly about good beer in recent times. Except mainstream German beers, they only got access to lots of international beer brands the last years.

Sure they still have a long way to go, for example Duvel sells as much beer in China during a whole year than in Belgium during a few days (note that China is around 360 times bigger than Belgium). They also sometimes buy nice beer to “give face”; even yesterday they kept on adding ice to our draft IPA ^^.

Cheers!
