33cl bottle Dorée, col blanc épais. Arôme est moyen, pointe fruitée tropicale sur un fond malté et houblonné. Le tout restant assez faiblard. En bouche, le palais est agréable et l’on ressent ce profile de papaïne qui laisse un discret ajout tropical de papaye. Cela reste un des seuls atouts de cette bière qui sinon tombe dans la banalité. Profile sec et pétillant avec un malt pils/pâle et ce léger palais riz/grains. Houblon rajoute une amertume citronné pour un fini gardant les grandes lignes d’une bière bien industrielle.

Total Wine & More, Chantilly 12oz ($2): Pours a pale gold with a quickly dissipating white head. Aroma is lightly of adjunct lager. Taste is almost non-existent. There is a little bit of sweetness going on in here. No hops, of course. Drinkable and inoffensive, but aside of that not much going on here.

Originally rated August 2005. This Vietnam pilsner-like brew pours a golden-yellow colour. The head of this one is pretty damn nice. Good retention and beautiful spider-web lacing. The nose is very grassy and metallic. Slight bitterness on the tongue at first and a smooth malty finish. The hop comes back in very mildly in the aftertaste. Grass is also felt in there, in the middle. Not bad at all and quite refreshing.

Nice cereal-like flavour. The rice ensures a very clean taste. A simple refreshing lager.

Bottle. Gold with a decent white head. Sweet malts with a touch of perfume on the finish. There are worse lagers out there.

A small touch of decency in a world of bad Vietnamese lagers. Better than all the other Saigon named brews, this one has a tang to it at least - one that’s not all bad. In a bottle in Saigon.

Everything about this one screams ’typical pilsner’, only a little bit below par.
