Jing-A Brewing

Known for Schwarzbier · New England IPA

Beijing's most culturally embedded craft brewery — founded in 2013 by two expats in love with the city. Jing-A is obsessively Beijing: their beers are named after the capital's landmarks, slang and phenomena (including Airpocalypse, named for Beijing's famous smog). Their Sanlitun and Xicheng taprooms have become genuine Beijing institutions. Jing-A proved that craft beer could feel authentically Chinese rather than imported.

Absent — the field expects it.

Across 3 beers in 3 style families, one trait still carries through — a broad range makes a shared signature harder to hold.
