Shanghai Brewery (Donghu Branch) - Merchant Reviews

Shanghai Brewery, along with Boxing Cat and The Brew, was almost the first restaurant in Shanghai to start brewing its own beer, kicking off the prelude to Shanghai's craft beer boom.

With the increase in popularity and the increasing attention of craft beer by domestic consumers, Shanghai Brewery's store has gradually seen local drinkers from the beginning of all foreigners. The sober layout, the peach-colored barstool, the TV fixed on the sports channel, and the food that is clearly biased towards the drink...... All this brings Shanghai Brewery closer and closer to a real Pub. On weekday evenings or weekend afternoons, it's refreshing to head to Shanghai Brewery and choose a freshly poured Draft Beer.

Compared to the craft brewery, which often has 20 heads, Shanghai Brewery's five regular wines give people less choice, but fortunately, their "Brewer's Selection" rotates regularly to keep them fresh. HongMei and West River are both German-style wheat beers (Weizen), the former has red plums and peaches, and the sweetness is higher, which is comparable to some cocktails, but with a little more fresh fruit. At the same time, the unfiltered method gives it a clear and opaque appearance, and the pink color makes many women fall in love with it at first sight. In contrast, West River is enriched with 50% German wheat malt and dark barley malt, as well as German Hallertauer hops, which exudes herbaceous and fruity aromas while highlighting the familiar wheat fragrance of Chinese, light and refreshing, and low bitterness. After taking a sip, even friends who don't know craft brewing will sigh: "It's much better than ordinary industrial (lager) beer!" ”

Polaris IPA is also the star of the store, this American IPA is brewed with fragrant red malt and a large amount of American hops, the aroma of malt is slightly sharper in the mouth, followed by a burst of bitterness brought by unrestrained American hops, but after drinking, there is a clear sweetness, and even has a unique sweetness, which is very enjoyable.
