Top 10 craft beer bars in Hong Kong

Trafalgar

Trafalgar’s fifth-floor location and roomy balcony make it one of the most popular watering holes along Lockhart Road.

Of course, the drinks list doesn’t hurt. The bar champions beer towers designed to share between the whole table but connoisseurs can also browse through the 70-deep list of English ales and other imported bottles.

Try the Greene King Old Crafty Hen Vintage, an award-winning wood-aged beer that carries notes of oak and malt.

There’s also a decent selection from Oxfordshire’s Wychwood Brewery, known for its traditionally craft-brewed organic ales.

5/F, The Broadway, 54-62 Lockhart Road, Wan Chai, 2110 1535; www.trafalgar.com.hk.

Okay, so where is Grouchos in this list? Often amazes me that all these articles about “Craft beer in Hong Kong” fails to mention Grouchos which has a decent following, and last time I was there, they had American and British Craft beer, like Rogue Hazelnut, Brew Dog, and a handful of nice Belgian beers. This was a while ago though, and I have heard it has changed ownership recently and gone downhill. Still, was one of the cheapest beer frequents with a wonderful view of the sea. Check it out, instead of making these “Top 10 Craft Breweries in HK” all the same every year but just the number order switched around. There are a stack of other good places in HK if you look hard enough.

You’ve missed out the best beer I tasted in HK! Young Master Ales are phenomenal! I have had West Coast and Oregon Craft Beers from the US, Aussie and UK IPAs and Real Ales: Young Master holds its own with all of them. Highly, highly recommended!

you cant call these top 10 places craft breweries. I mean who is actually brewing beer, real beer, not bottled beer.
Where are the real Micro Breweries. Any place that boasts 10 or more beers is not a real craft beer place. I mean there’s one
mentioned selling a range of 90 beers but none are brewed on site. A real craft micro brewery brewing on site will only have about four regular beers and the fifth would be alternating.
Many of these international bottled beers being sold at these sites are just big company brewed beers which are crap and have nothing to do with proper brewing methods. People just dont know any better.
