A brand new spot just opened up on Xiangyang Bei Lu with an odd name but a simple premise: beer; coffee.
Together. Nothing to do with the old
Plan B on Yongjia Lu. This is its own thing;
Plan B Brewery & Coffee. Their beer is apparently made in a giant brewing facility in Wuhan that does brewing for a bunch of other microbreweries. They also serve Ming Ri (35rmb) and Reberg Cider (29rmb). Nice window perch seating, but there's plenty of stairs to crouch on like a delinquent, too. How is it? Eeeh. Coffee's fine. The Lager's weak but the Munchen Wiezen isn't awful. Not that it matters, really, because it's
it's 17rmb.


Following in the vein of the likes Tap That and Jiuhuar: dirt cheap and so-so. For those who want something a little more artisanal than a can of Budweiser from Lawsons. Seems like a popular formula. Jiuhuar, just around the corner, is busy almost every night. I'm going to say that with that, DrinKuaidi, 624 Changle Lu, the entirety of the building ALL is in, and now Plan B, this little cross section is the city's epicenter for cheap drinking on the sidewalk. Beautiful. Plan B is doing buy-one-get-one on beers while they're in soft opening, probably for the rest of this month.
And they sell coffee! For the morning after, you see.
