The Rooster

Shanghai


Good beer spot favoured by the after-work expat crowd. Local brews on tap include the Boxing Cat Contender Pale Ale and Goose Island IPA. The hoppy and juicy Shanghai Cloud Monster IPA and the citrusy Stone Tangerine Express IPA are worth a taste. A few sports screens show all the big games.
