Description
Some people say we make the best craft beer in Saigon, Vietnam. Enter the Darkness and decide for yourself...
Heart of Darkness is all about duality. Good and evil. Sane and insane. Big, bold, crafted brews that will challenge the way you think about beer. Thirst quenching, session beers that will have you bouncing off the walls. Hop bombs that will give you a kick-to-the-teeth, while still being still balanced and smashable. Whatever your taste, we’ve got it….
Our family, the “Dark Army” is an eclectic mix of weirdos from all walks of life. So… we’ve handcrafted a bunch of beers to pair with our varying passions - from frisbee golf to music festivals, from overindulgent eating with good friends to surfing and hiking…
It's a craft beer journey into unchartered territory... #enterthedarkness

Light golden color. Thin frothy white head. Lovely dry pomelo nose with good crackery maltiness. Excellent pomelo character on the palate with firm sourness and big bitterness. Just the right amount of fruit. Wonderful

--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.

Golden, clear with a minimal white head. A fruity aroma, with some caramel and sweet malt sense. Medium bitterness with a good hop, caramel and some tropial sense at the end. From Alko Rovaniemi FI 11.2021. CL game CHE - JUV 1-0

Bottle split at CCV, thanks to John, Cotteridge Wines 08/06/19. Very light haze on a pale golden yellow pour with a decent just off white head. Nose is grass, pale malts, modest citric load. Taste comprises grass, lemon rind, herb, toasted malts, cereals. Medium bodied, fine carbonation, semi drying close. Decent refreshing pils.
