14 Nov 2015 Nov 2015 15 The Rise of Craft

By Iain McKinnell

A couple of months ago we ran an article in our Beijing Beat column listing some of the top craft breweries the Chinese capital has to offer. But given the rapid rise of craft beer throughout the country in recent years we thought it prudent to take a closer look at this phenomenon and some of the major players in the industry. This month we sat down with the owners of a few of Beijing’s more prominent craft breweries to get their take on this thriving new business, examine why it has been so popular and get some insight into what it takes to succeed in China’s congested food and beverage market.

The leaders of the pack are made with locally sourced ingredients including We collected the views hops, malts, spices, and teas. from the founders and brewmasters behind some Pan Dinghao 潘丁浩 and of Beijing’s leading craft Panda Brew started out used to distribute draught Great Leap: To be honest, it new and something with breweries: Kristian Li and life together in a tiny 15 sqm beer throughout the city. hasn’t yet.

Welcome to Tianjin, Annie, and thanks for sharing with us your brief experience in the city. Time: 18:00-22:00, Date: Tuesdays to Sundays, Why did you choose to come and live in China? October to December I’m actually Chinese but I was born and raised in London, England. This is actually my first time coming to China and my main motivation was to learn the language and Annie Ly experience the country first hand. I often bewilder the local people by my inability to speak Chinese well. My students were especially confused when I walked into the classroom for the first time and spoke fluent English with a British accent. But all in all, I hope that I will improve my Chinese very quickly so I can make the most of my time in Tianjin and explore the rest of China.

During my first weekend in Tianjin, I went to explore the city at night. One of the things I like most is seeing the To keep away the cold of the dark winter nights, Chef buildings in the city all lit up because it’s beautiful.

Compared to these cities, Tianjin is less intense but it still has a good buzz about it. It has made settling in here very easy.

Could you mention some of the things that surprised you when you first arrived? One of the things that surprised me when I first arrived was the mix of continental architecture with Chinese life. Places like the Italian Style Town and Wudadao seemed quite strange to me at first. It felt very odd to be walking around and feel like you were in a city in Europe, but actually knowing you were in China. But I guess the mix of Europe and China is what makes a city like Tianjin very unique. The BBQ & Avocado Burger @ Blue Frog What kind of food or drinks do you prefer to try here? I tend to eat both a mixture of Chinese and western food here. Sometimes I miss eating western food that I am Blue Frog brings traditional American BBQ flavour to its burger used to from back home so occasionally, I will visit restaurants that serve western style food. I especially miss family – using 100% Australian prime beef cooked in the good dairy products like milk and cheese at times (a strange craving, I know). But I sometimes feel guilty about eating western food in China and do my best to try a lot of different Chinese food as possible. I like that Tianjin is Southern style, add to that the star ingredient, the delicious well known for its snack culture and the city has a lot to offer in terms of local foods it is famous for in all of China. avocado.

I also want to ensures a balanced, nutritional dish that you’ll want to eat have travelled to many places in China. My list of places I would like to visit grows by the day so I hope I will be again and again. able to make it to places like Yunnan, , , and others. Finally, I would like to be able to say at the end of my time in China that I made the most of everything. I want to experience food, music, culture – absolutely everything I can!

Remember that you are great and just enjoy the date! In addition, don’t forget that most of the best moments of our lives happen spontaneously and unexpectedly and that everything that is supposed to happen, happens in the best possible way! Daemon says: For me this is a pretty straightforward question to answer. I really don’t care too much about where we go or what we do on our date but I do have certain principles that I always stand by. The best dates – regardless of whether it’s the first, second, third or fiftieth – are the ones that are short, inexpensive and to the point. I always keep them short in duration for two reasons. Firstly, my free time is limited so I need to keep the screening process for potential partners as efficient as possible. Secondly, I strongly believe that the longer you spend getting to know each other in the early stages of the dating process the more chances you have of slipping into the perilous friend zone (AKA a man’s worst nightmare).

Keeping it cheap is also very important. Not only does it help you to save some of your cash for other ladies but it also helps to sift out the gold diggers. Of course, any date I go on has to be meaningful. If there is no intimacy, or at least some serious flirting, then it’s time to bring out the excuses and leave!
