What's Up in Beer is our rundown of all things ale and suds. Lather yourself in the latest beery news, gossip, and openings all the while forgetting what exactly it was that you were meant to be doing. Don't worry, beer can fix that too.




Jing-A is passionate about passion fruit





Last Friday, Jing-A brought back their award-winning Death by Passionfruit (gold medal, International Beer Cup 2019). At 4.7 percent ABV, it's sure to be a slow, delicious death during which you can savor every sip before ultimately slipping into a heady fog. The beer has a devout following here in the city, and is the type of stuff that midsummer night's dreams are made of.

Great Leap goes full Irish





The latest brew from Great Leap Brewing, Chieftains On the Wall Irish Red, is an homage to Irish band the Chieftains, who were not only the first band from the Emerald Isle to tour China, but also the first Western band to play on the Great Wall, which they did in 1983. The beer uses prime Chinese hops – Qingdao Dahua to be specific – and a traditional ale yeast to achieve that classic Irish red ale taste and texture. It's the greatest relationship to come out of China and Ireland since Bono reportedly "fell under the spell" of Fan Bingbing at a Paris fashion show in 2010.

Beersmith launches an Oat Cream IPA


Beersmith recently released their new Oat Cream IPA (pictured at top), which is full of rich pineapple and citrus flavors that make it just short of tropical and something akin to a creamsicle, with plenty of oats to balance the robust profile. Like any IPA, it's packed full of hops, yet it retains a smooth texture that is sure to get even the most hop-averse slinging 'em back.
