Slow Boat is one of Beijing's original craft breweries and its Sanlitun taproom remains a reliable favourite for well-made American-style craft beers in a relaxed, unpretentious setting. The Monkey's Fist IPA and Helmsman Stout are perennial highlights. It draws a friendly mix of locals and expats and is notably less chaotic than some nearby bars, making it a solid choice any night of the week.
