The COVID-19 outbreak looks to be under control in Beijing, and things are slowly getting back to normal. But the following venues are not getting complacent; they can all assure the safety and wellbeing of their guests is a top priority, implementing extra precautionary measures, such as routine sanitization of public areas and restrooms, mandatory masks and body temperature checks. So get out there and enjoy yourselves... or there are a couple delivery options too!

Beersmith

Beersmith is back, opened from 11am to midnight daily, and over the last couple months has been busy planning spring deals and events to keep friends and guests entertained every day of the week.

  • Catch up with friends and colleagues with Beersmith’s daily happy hour. Enjoy buy-one-get-one beers from 5pm to 7pm on weekdays, and all Beersmith beer for RMB35 from 11am to 7pm on Saturday and Sunday. And they're hosting live DJ sets.

  • Eat vegetarian. Save water. Drink beer. Meatless Monday is a global campaign encouraging everyone to cut meat out of their diet for one day per week. The goal is to improve personal health and help the environment – and Beersmith is now taking part. Every Monday, enjoy one meat-free dish and a beer for RMB98, all day and all night. Choose from their veggie burger, vegan tacos, mushroom penne, quinotto, meatless or vegan cobb salad or Omnipork nachos.

  • Looking for a great excuse to catch up over a steak and a couple beers? Or maybe you’ve just been craving a perfectly cooked, high-quality steak. Whatever the reason, Beersmith’s Gentlemen’s Club Tuesday gets all guests (both ladies and gents) two free beers with every steak order. Available from our a la carte menu, all day long.

  • Skipped girls night out the last few months? Get your fix with Beersmith’s Ladies’ Night, where every Wednesday ladies get free beer from 5pm to 9pm.

For friends who’ve grown to love Beersmith delivery, they are continuing their takeaway beer service. Find crowd favorites like the Hopsessed Hazy IPA, Cosmic Pale Ale and Uncontrollably Passionate India Pale Ale Lager – all with unique new label designs – available now on WeChat mall and Ele.me.
