--Bottled, from Beer Bank, Kuala Lumpur. -- Black, rich firm head. RIch chocolate aroma. Mid dry with solid body and rounded mouthfeel. Chocolate dominate, but no cakeyness, more dark pure cocoa. Mid bitter finish. Not complex at all, but rather elegant and decidedly full flavoured.

Tap at Beer Hunters. It's years when I last time had a beer from Saigon. Toasted, coffeish and ashy aroma. Medium-bodied. Coffeish, chocolaty, ashy flavour. Some licorice hints too. A bit sweet, not much on hop side. Okish.
