Brewery serving up drinks fit for a panda

The newest face of craft beer in Beijing is making a furry splash.

Panda Brew Pub - with its feisty-eyed mascot on the logo and labels - currently serves about eight ales in the American, British and Belgian styles. The setting is dramatic: Huge metal tanks loom on the right side of the wall at the entrance. The pub has two floors, each high-ceilinged and covering about 200 square meters, as well as a roof terrace for sipping al fresco when the weather warms up.

Metallic chairs, wooden tables, steel door frames and gray concrete give an industrial factory feel to the whole space.
