Jing-A Launches Dong Bei 10th Anniversary Brew and Burger
To celebrate ten years of their Dongbei Hazy IPA, Jing-A introduced a new beer called Dong Bei 10th Anniversary last Friday. This modern hazy IPA, brewed with four Australian hops—Galaxy, Vic Secret, Eclipse, and Enigma—and fermented with LalBrewPamona yeast, offers a fresh twist on the original with strong tropical fruit flavors and smoothness at 8 percent ABV.
They have also created a limited-edition burger to pair with the new beer. Named the Qiqihar BBQ Wagyu Beef Burger, it features a thick Wagyu beef patty stuffed with M5 short ribs marinated in the Dong Bei 10th Anniversary beer before grilling.
For those interested in both the beer and burger along with some free Jing-A merchandise, they offer Anniversary Sets for RMB 208, which include two glasses of Dong Bei 10th Anniversary, the Qiqihar BBQ Wagyu Beef Burger, and a special ten-year anniversary tote bag (while supplies last).

New Brew, Class of 1855 Brett Strong Ale, Debuts at Slowboat
Slowboat recently added a new beer called Class of 1855 Brett Strong Ale to their impressive lineup. This brew undergoes two months of fermentation with Lithuanian farmhouse yeast and Brett yeast, and is then dry-hopped with Nelson Sauvin hops during the final stage. Inspired by skin-contact natural white wine, it offers a clean and crisp flavor profile with citrus notes. With a 10 percent ABV, it is meant to be savored. The Class of 1855 Brett Strong Ale is available at all Slowboat locations, which you can find in the poster below.
