Bottle. Pours a wretched gold with way too many bubbles clinging to the side of the glass and aromas of adjunct... can’t even tell which ones for sure. Hmm... Flavor is OK, for a boring pale lager. Not bad, not great... it is what it is, I guess.

As bia toui from a bia hoi stand in Pham Ngu Lao, Saigon. Pale yellow colour. Big but very loose head that falls quickly. Somewhat appely aroma with lots of grains. Bland, grainy with that characteristic tongue-coating note of a classic bia hoi.

Terrible lager, typical of developing countries that need to branch out a bit more and brew something a little bit different.

From a can drank on the back of a moped through the streets of Da Nang. It was cold and went down easy. Lacked much flavor but did have light sweetness from the malts and some apple, as well. It did it’s job- just barely.

Downed countless bottles of this stuff in some local watering holes in Da Nang. Rather tasteless though there is some noticeable sweetness throughout. It helped me beat the heat of the winter sun, though, so it gets a win for that.

Drank plenty of this in Da Nang. Had some sweet malty tones to it and some apple. Really nothing to remember beyond the fact it was refreshing on a hot November afternoon in Vietnam
