Jing-A is thrilled to finally announce the 8x8 Brewing Project, China's first collaboration-based craft beer festival, coming to Beijing on November 3rd & 4th, 2017!





Each year, the 8x8 Brewing Project will pair 8 breweries from Greater China with 8 breweries from a chosen region around the world to brew 8 kick-ass collaboration beers. For our inaugural year we've teamed up with some of the hottest breweries from the Pacific Northwest, one of the birthplaces of the modern craft beer movement.



The brewery pairs will be revealed soon - they'll have the whole summer to work together and prepare their collaboration brews. Then, on November 3 & 4, we'll gather everyone in Beijing to release their collaborations, pouring them alongside each brewery's own specialty beers at the 8x8 Festival. All the brewers will be there in person, so you'll have a chance to learn the stories behind what you're drinking - straight from the source!
