You do not have permission to edit this page, for the following reasons:

This IP address has been blocked from editing Wikipedia.
This does not affect your ability to read Wikipedia pages.
Most people who see this message have done nothing wrong. Some kinds of blocks restrict editing from specific service providers or telecom companies in response to recent abuse or vandalism, and can sometimes affect other users who are unrelated to that abuse. Review the information below for assistance if you do not believe that you have done anything wrong.

The IP address or range 3.236.0.0/16 has been blocked (disabled) by ‪ST47‬ for the following reason(s):

The IP address that you are currently using has been blocked because it is believed to be a web host provider. To prevent abuse, web hosts may be blocked from editing Wikipedia.
You will not be able to edit Wikipedia using a web host provider because it hides your IP address, much like a proxy or VPN.
We recommend that you attempt to use another connection to edit. For example, if you use a proxy or VPN to connect to the internet, turn it off when editing Wikipedia. If you edit using a mobile connection, try using a Wi-Fi connection, and vice versa. If you are using a corporate internet connection, switch to a different Wi-Fi network. If you have a Wikipedia account, please log in.
If you do not have any other way to edit Wikipedia, you will need to request an IP block exemption.

How to appeal if you are confident that your connection does not use a web host's IP address:
If you are confident that you are not using a web host, you may appeal this block by adding the following text on your talk page: ((unblock|reason=Caught by a web host block but this host or IP is not a web host. My IP address is _______. Place any further information here. ~~~~)). You must fill in the blank with your IP address for this block to be investigated. Your IP address can be determined here. Alternatively, if you wish to keep your IP address private you can use the unblock ticket request system. There are several reasons you might be editing using the IP address of a web host (such as if you are using VPN software or a business network); please use this method of appeal only if you think your IP address is in fact not a web host.

Administrators: The IP block exemption user right should only be applied to allow users to edit using web host in exceptional circumstances, and they should usually be directed to the functionaries team via email. If you intend to give the IPBE user right, a CheckUser needs to take a look at the account. This can be requested most easily at SPI Quick Checkuser Requests. Unblocking an IP or IP range with this template is highly discouraged without at least contacting the blocking administrator.

This block will expire on 06:21, 30 September 2026.

Even when blocked, you will usually still be able to edit your user talk page, as well as email administrators and other editors.

For information on how to proceed, please read the FAQ for blocked users and the guideline on block appeals. The guide to appealing blocks may also be helpful.

The history of '''beer in Hong Kong''' dates back to the mid-19th century. Currently the best selling beer is [[San Miguel Beer|San Miguel]], brewed by [[San Miguel Brewery Hong Kong]]. San Miguel had been brewed in [[Sham Tseng]] since 1948 and later moved to [[Yuen Long]] until 2007. The brewery was reopened in 2009.

[[Carlsberg Group|Carlsberg]] was also brewed in [[Tai Po]] since the 1980s until recently((When|date=January 2023)). [[Blue Girl Beer]], a brand owned by the Hong Kong-based trading and distribution company [[Jebsen Group|Jebsen & Co.]],  is brewed in [[South Korea]] under supervision of Jebsen & Co.

Other notable brands include [[Tsingtao Brewery|Tsingtao]] and [[Corona (beer)|Corona]]. [[Jolly Shandy]] is also fairly popular among women and youngsters.

International craft beer and microbrews have seen a rise in popularity since 2010, with specialty and premium beer from countries such as Belgium, the UK, Australia, the US and Japan being more widely available.<ref>((cite web|title=Craft beers come to Hong Kong|url=http://www.bbc.com/travel/blog/20120411-craft-beers-come-to-hong-kong|access-date=25 May 2014))</ref> This has led to the formation of the [https://web.archive.org/web/20150206092732/http://cbahk.org/ Craft Beer Association of Hong Kong], made up of distributors, consumers, retailers, bars & restaurants.

==Local Breweries==
'Hong Kong Beer Co' was started in 1995, though it was originally known as South China Brewing Company. It is the oldest existing local craft brewery. Typhoon Brewery was in business from 2009 to 2014<ref>((cite web|title=Typhoon microbrewery storms Hong Kong|url=http://travel.cnn.com/hong-kong/none/hong-kong-microbrewery-showdown-767038|access-date=25 May 2014))</ref> on [[Lantau Island]]. Due to changes in alcohol licensing legislation implemented in the year 2000,<ref>((cite web|title=DUTIABLE COMMODITIES ORDINANCE|url=http://www.legislation.gov.hk/blis_ind.nsf/CURALLENGDOC/86C92ED4F95BC9AA4825693100333C4C?OpenDocument))</ref> brewing beer at home using small scale equipment and ingredients, commonly referred to as "home brewing", is now permissible in Hong Kong within limits.
