A Beijing craft brewery institution — founded in 2011 in an old factory in the Gulou neighbourhood. Arrow Factory (箭厂) takes its name from the traditional arrow-making workshops that once filled Beijing's hutongs. Their Gulou taproom is one of Beijing's most beloved craft beer bars: low-lit, atmospheric and permanently packed with a mix of locals and expats. Arrow Factory makes straightforward, well-crafted beers without pretension.
