Last April, Rimhung Street was inaugurated in Pyongyang, the capital city of the DPRK, with characteristic architectural beauty.

With the sign Hwasong Taedonggang Beer House and a larger-than-life beer jug with the froth of bubbles outside make the passers-by want to drink fresh beer.

If one goes to the beer house attracted by the decoration, they can see two columns supporting the entrance roof of the building, depicting Taedonggang Beer bottles.

After seeing the decorations, people say that they can understand what the building is for without looking at the sign, and speak highly of the designer’s idea.

A large hall, several rooms and outdoor balcony of the pub on the first and second floors are all furnished in a characteristic way.

According to Kang Pong Suk, manageress of the beer house, the pub is popular not only for its architectural form.

The unique taste of Taedonggang beer, which cools down the hot body in a moment and refreshes the feeling, is a key to its increasing popularity, she added.

She continued: "The beer, made with underground water of the upstream of the Taedong River suitable for brewing light beer and with barley, rice and hop cultivated in organic methods, is a famous product of the country and a pride of Pyongyang for its pure, fresh and soft taste and unique hop aroma, so not only beer lovers but others like drinking it."

The pub serves eight kinds of beer with different tastes, colours and alcohol contents.

Among them, No. 2 is very popular among the guests for its refreshing taste and unique aroma.

The exterior and interior are flawless and the beer taste is so great; one can enjoy drinking beer with their friends or family members anytime; it is a refreshing and pleasant place–these are impressions of those who have been to the pub.

Foreigners also frequent the pub, and they speak highly of the pub and the beer.
