Shen Hou: "Nature’s Tonic: Beer, Ecology, and Urbanization in a Chinese City, 1900–50", Environmental History, Volume 24, Issue 2, April 2019, Pages 282–306.

Abstract

This article traces the environmental history of the first fifty years of the Tsingtao Brewery, investigating how a popular mass-produced commodity transformed a local landscape, industrialized its water, and yet offered a way back to the same nature that had been transformed. Furthermore, it explores the growth of the city where the brewery was located—Qingdao, on the coast of China. Together, beer and its home city created an example of the modern paradox of loving nature while exploiting it.
