This Lunar New Year, we’re raising a toast to the Year of the Horse — and not just any toast. One that blends tradition, celebration, and a fun fact that galloped straight into our brewery minds: racehorses drink beer.

Yep, it’s true. According to PetMD, many racehorses and performance horses are given a beer after a big race. Why? Because beer contains iron, and essential vitamins that help with muscle recovery. It’s their version of a post-workout pint.

So this February, while you’re tossing yusheng and handing out ang baos, you might want to throw in a round of craft beer to honour our hoofed friends — and maybe, just maybe, embrace your inner champion.

The Horse: A Symbol of Power, Speed, and Perseverance

In Chinese culture, the Horse is all about energy, drive, and resilience. Those born in Horse years are said to be free-spirited, loyal, hardworking, and always in motion. Sounds a lot like how we feel running three buzzing LIBC outlets, doesn’t it?

And much like a good beer, Horses bring people together. They’re communal creatures — just like us. Whether it’s a gallop or a gathering, this is the year to go full speed ahead into joy, purpose, and a bit of indulgence.

This CNY, Make It a Crafty One

While tradition calls for Mandarin oranges and pineapple tarts (yes, we love them too), why not modernise your reunion gatherings by dining at any of our outlets with locally brewed craft beer that paired mind-bogglingly well with our menu and yusheng?
Here’s why our brews fit right into your Lunar celebration:
• Our beers are brewed in Singapore — fresh, local, and full of flavour.
• Think: our Ong Laiger with our yusheng. They pair beautifully together.
• Our beers are free of preservatives, made with quality ingredients, and crafted for easy sipping over long, laughter-filled dinners.
So go ahead and book a table for your CNY gathering at one of our outlets

Celebrate with Us at LIBC

We’re open throughout the CNY period and turning our three venues into festive pits stops for your CNY plans:

• Changi Village: Beachside serenity meets celebration. Great for laid-back family gatherings or sunset drinks with visiting relatives.
• Gillman Barracks: A peaceful green escape with big group seating, perfect for reunion dinners.
• South Beach: Right in the city. Ideal for post-work drinks, client dinners, or a cheeky CNY lunch.

We’ll have our usual beer lineup (and maybe a special one for the Horse-Oz with No Name), festive bites, and a whole lot of good cheer.

A Little Superstition, A Lot of Fun

Some say to drink and celebrate with intention in the Year of the Horse. With that in mind, we’re choosing beers that symbolise luck, loyalty, and boldness. Is that a thing? Maybe not. But in our book, any excuse to raise a glass with loved ones counts.
So as the drums roll, the firecrackers pop, and the lo hei flies high, remember this: even the strongest racehorse knows when to pause and enjoy a good beer.

Here’s to 2026: A Year of Strength, Spirit, and Sips that Matter

We’re galloping into the year with full hearts, full taps, and renewed excitement for what’s ahead. Come celebrate with us, bring your crew, and make some memories that (like a good beer) only get better with time.
