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

Shared @ KJUBZT tasting June 2019. Pours a golden colour, slightly hazy, with a white head. Aroma's of tropical sour fruit and some sweetness. Retronasal it's dankish and fruity. Flavour is rather bitter with light sweetness. Medium bodied. Long finish, firm bitterness. Not bad, but there's room for improvement.
