This was the beer we had in mind when we decided to brew Chinese craft beers. Honey Ma Gold is an easy-drinking ale enlivened by floral Sichuan peppercorns and local honey from an apiary near the Great Wall. The Honey Ma Gold was GLB's first brew and still our proudest creation.

2014 Asia Beer Cup Silver Medal winner.

Keg at the brewery bar in Beijing. A wonderful experience, sweet for the most part with a nice tingle from the Sichuan pepper. Easy drinking.

On tap at their main brewery #45. Honey ma gold 6.3% deep gold almost the same color as chesty puller. The aroma is grainy earthy and rough - kind of skunky. Rough malt and some kind of herbal component similar to coriander, not bad.
