Great Leap Brewing
Description
Great Leap Brewing Started in 2010, Great Leap Brewing is Beijing’s first craft brewery and creates recipes based on the desire to foster a Chinese craft beer culture. Our philosophy is to source a majority of local products, including locally grown and processed hops, teas, spices, fruits, vegetables, coffees, sugars and honeys. Great Leap Brewing has shown China that craft beer can be local, and can be some of the best beer in the world.
Great Leap Brewing Original #6 is where it all started: in the heart of the hutongs. With as many as 20 beers on tap, and rarely fewer than 17, it has the largest selection of locally brewed beer on tap in town, nothing in bottles, nothing shipped from across the ocean, just pure, fresh beer.
Great Leap Brewing #12 Brewpub opened in 2013, pairing the best craft beer Beijing has to offer with burgers consistently voted among the best in town. With a brewpub ambience not unlike what you might find in the USA or Europe, the state-of-the-art brewhouse and fermentors are all in plain view. Hardwood tables, steel signs, and chalkboards give it a hand-crafted, local flavor, much like the beer itself.
Great Leap #45 opened in March 2015, and is nestled in the Xin Yuan li （新源里）neighborhood just north of Sanlitun. The menu features classic, New York style pizzas that pair perfectly with our beers. From the hearty-but-healthy Green Machine to the meaty Little Nunzio, our pizzas are just what the doctor ordered. Great Leap 45 features an outdoor patio, and is ideal for a night out with a couple friends, or a post-work pint.

This Sunday, come join us for a discussion on two legendary figures in Chinese history: one a bad-ass warrior who shattered the mold to fight for her country, and the other an infamous degenerate who masqueraded as an intellectual. It's history in a pint glass, led by acclaimed historian Jeremiah Jenne. Email jimmy@greatleapbrewing.com to reserve a seat.
