That’s right, craft beer has hit Beijing in a big way, and Bespoke has a new evening tour to help you (or your guests) navigate your way through the scene. Join affable local Beijinger Frank on a jaunt through the city’s hidden artisanal taprooms and uncover the delights of an ale made with Sichuan peppercorns, Watermelon Wheat Beer or a pint of ‘Iron Buddha Blonde’. Not only will you get to chew the fat with a real, beer-loving local, you’ll get an insider intro to the hippest micro breweries in town.
