The Kennedy Town restaurant, a collaboration between restauranteurs Woolly Pig Hong Kong and Gweilo Beer, has already become the city’s favourite spot for craft beer lovers, with its 24 revolving taps, gastropub menus and Gweilo Brewlab, the venue’s on-site working brewery, which boasts a 500L commercial beer brewing kettle with six fermenters. Now you can do more than wet your whistle, with new Brewer Workshops.
Available every Sunday in November (and then the first Sunday of the month), the workshops are the perfect opportunity for beer enthusiasts to sample a range of malts, smell fresh hops, taste-tempting new concoctions, and tour the brewing facility to learn more about the brewing process.

Taking place at GRAIN’s dedicated workshop space, which is decorated with bags of grain and a mill, the workshops offer groups a hands-on experience of the beer-making process.

If that’s simply not enough to sate your curiosity, you and your wingmen can work with the Gweilo Brewer to develop your own signature recipe. The Gweilo brewer will guide guests through all the choices in beer styles, as well as types of malt, hops, yeasts and flavours. The interactive session will also involve tasting numerous brews to help create the ideal beer recipe for the guest. A minimum of 14 days advance booking is required.
Which we figure is about the right amount of time you’ll need to come up with a catching name.
