Slow Boat Brewery Taproom

Slow Boat Brewery Taproom (56 Dongsi 8th Alley, Dongcheng, Beijing) — founders Daniel Hebert and Chandler Jurinka, both Americans and long-term Beijing expats, became friends in 2009 over their shared appreciation for craft beer. Two years later, Slow Boat Brewery was born out of their desire to bring North American brewing styles to China, while still creating uniquely Chinese beers. This is where patrons can sample the largest selection of Slow Boat beer. It sells a changing array of anywhere between 10 and 17 core and seasonal brews, along with its burger menu and an exceptional Sunday brunch.
