Inside Shanghai Craft Beer with a Beer Judge and Author

Discover Shanghai’s best craft beer with Tian Zhou, founder of Beer Matters, beer author, homebrewer, and international beer competition judge. This is not a quick bar crawl. Shanghai’s best beer is not all on one convenient street, so we use walking plus private car / MPV transfers to visit carefully selected taprooms, brewpubs, hidden local favorites, and a serious imported beer bar with 50+ fresh taps. You will taste at least 10 beers, from fresh pilsners and IPAs to Chinese tea beers, wild sours, local experiments, and world-class imported beers. Along the way, I’ll explain beer styles, brewing, Chinese beer culture, and the stories behind the people making these beers. Whether you are a beer geek or just curious, this experience will help you drink better, taste smarter, and see a different side of Shanghai. Includes beer tastings, Chinese snacks, bottled water, private transfers, a signed copy of Brewed in China, and free craft beer advice for the rest of your China trip.
