Our Brewery
Young Master operates in the south side of Hong Kong Island. Our first brewery was commissioned in November 2013, in the idyllic seaside neighbourhood of Ap Lei Chau. Quickly outgrowing our meager capacity, second brewery came online in August 2016 in the industrial heart of Wong Chuk Hang. Our production capacity grew ten-fold overnight making it among one of the largest craft brewing operations in Asia.
Over the years, we’ve also added a bottling line and a canning line, an expanded barrel ageing program and Asia’s first foeder dedicated to brewing. Our original brewery was transformed into an experimental facility for small-batch, limited release beers — a creative hub that served us well for a decade before being decommissioned.
Wong Chuk Hang
Commissioned in August, 2016.
We built a state-of-the-art 40HL brewery in 2016 featuring a fully-automated CraftStar Brewhouse from GEA in Germany.
The new brewery also features an expanded barrel-ageing area, a sour beer and mixed-fermentation program complete with a foeder, the first of its kind for a brewery in Asia, a bottling and canning line.
Ap Lei Chau
Commissioned in November, 2013.
Decommisioned in December, 2023.
It all began in Ap Lei Chau with a straight-forward 10HL brew-length setup where we made all our beers until mid-2016. The brewery remained in operation until the end of 2023 where we made our limited, smaller batch releases there.
