Beijing Mr. Beer: Beer Budget

See All 1 Photos

There really are no frills at this hutong joint. There’s no Wi-Fi and no fancy décor. What Mr. Beer does have, though, is dirt-cheap prices. The racks at this supermarket, tended by the always-cheery Mr. Huang, are stocked with an extensive selection of imported stouts, ales and lagers, all for less than you’d find elsewhere. Get a Guinness for ¥15, Krombacher for ¥10, or a craft brew for no more than ¥30. Grab a spot at one of the wooden benches or take a few bottles home.

Our rating: 3/5 stars

I stayed on Mao'er Hutong during my time in Beijing and feel compelled to write and agree with everyone's comments. Marx Huang's prices are amazing. The price on his imported German and Dutch beers are cheaper than the USA, and the selection of beer to choose from is very good. I always stopped by on my way home and tried a new beer almost everyday. Ive gotta thank Mr Huang for bringing me to the attention of some really great beers.... My next trip to Beijing is going to involve introducing him to one of my favorite drinks from the america's....... "Margaritas"
