Please note: considering the huge and neverending development of the world of beer in many countries, my comments below may be quite out-of-date.

This giant country, according to certain sources, could be the biggest beer producer in the world since the beginning of this century. It counts between 600 and 800 breweries with just very few exporting their products. China has a low beer consumption per capita but it seems to have grown during the last ten years. Some giant world brewers (Carlsberg, Interbrew, SABMiller and Lion Nathan) are already implented and ready to get profit on China's huge potentiel.
In Switzerland, apart from Tsing Tao, a top ten most sold beer in the world, chinese beers are not easy to find. And not interesting too ...
Breweries: 600 to 800 / Beers: 3000 to 6500
