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

Tap at Heart of Darkness, Singapore. Poured a hazy golden orange colour with a mostly lasting frothy white head. The aroma is grainy malt, peachy citrus fruits. The flavour is moderate bitter and sweet, with a light, crisp, slightly watery, melon, mineral, earthy palate. It says it’s zero IBU’s in the description and they were not wrong.
