The ULTIMATE Chinese FOOD & CRAFT BEER Tour in French Concession | Shanghai, China

In April of 2019, I had the amazing fortune of getting hired by a fantastic company in China for a one-day job. I extended my trip to twelve days so I could properly explore Shanghai, a city I first visited in 2015 with my father. I also added days in the cities of Suzhou and Hangzhou so I could experience places that were completely new to me. I can’t wait to share this epic series with you!

My second full day in China continued with a mind-blowing Chinese food and craft beer tour in the French Concession, an area I had explored earlier that morning. I linked up with my boy Topher from UnTour Food Tours, who would be taking me around to his favorite spots in the area. I’d never had Chinese craft beer, so I was super excited!
UnTour Food Tours do amazing tours in Shanghai and Beijing, and also work with other companies in Chengdu and Hong Kong, so check them out if you’re ever in China!
We headed out to explore the middle part of Shanghai. This area contains lots of glitzy boutiques. Everything there looked brand new and luxurious and there were lots of skyscrapers.
We started at Liquid Laundry, a super nice and modern gastropub and nanobrewery that offers 15 beers. I started with a Cezanne farmhouse ale, which was smooth and silky with a hint of coconut. The head had a nice, creamy flavor!
Then we tried some from the barrels. They have a 3-barrel system and 8 fermenting tanks. We tried a Haze IPA, which was light, cloudy, and creamy with a nice head. The next one was tangy. Then we tried a flight of beers with an imperial stout, porter, cocoa porter, honey wine, an IPA, and a Cezanne.
The Cezanne was very light. The wheat pale ale had a hint of wheat, and the mango IPA had a nice mango flavor. The next one was like a sparkling water with a honey finish. The porter had notes of coconut and chocolate, and the imperial stout was perfect for the cold weather outside. There were notes of vanilla. It was my favorite one!
Then it was time to eat! We headed down a dark back alley, but Shanghai is a really safe city. We went for some dumplings. There were lots of different varieties to choose from, so I had Topher surprise me with our order.
We got some Suntory beer and boiled cabbage and pork dumplings. We made a dipping sauce out of rice vinegar, soy sauce, chili sauce, dried chili, and minced garlic. It was so good. The sauce was amazing! I loved the spice, but it sneaks up on you!
We headed back down the street with our beers-open containers are allowed in China. Next, we headed to The Camel, which was voted Shanghai’s best sports bar. Most of the beers here aren’t local craft beers; they’re imported. We only got 4 Chinese beers: a nice and hoppy American Wild Ale, a juicy hazy IPA, a malty pale ale, and a Maybach that tasted like a German beer. I loved the IPA!
Then we walked about 5 minutes to get some knife-cut beef noodles. They’re made with a dense, high-gluten dough. They only take 30 seconds to boil. We tried the most-consumed beer in the world, which was very watery. Then, we dug into the noodles!
The noodles were thick and had a great sauce. They were also al dente and super tasty. We added some spice to them. I loved the mix of the heat, sauce, cilantro, and noodles. I didn’t want them to end!
Our last stop was Daga Brew Pub, which focuses on Chinese craft beer. I liked it a lot. It was packed with people. We got five beers. I started with a jasmine tea lager, which was so different. I liked it! Then was a German wheat beer, a Sichuan IPA, a hoppy hazy IPA, and a brown ale.
What an amazing Chinese food and craft beer tour! If you enjoyed coming along with me on it, please give it a thumbs up and leave me a comment. Also, please subscribe to my channel so you don’t miss any of my upcoming travel/food content!
