Bottle from local Lidl store (as Bia Saigon Export) – drank at home. Pours golden yellow with a small very transient bubble off-white head. The aroma just exudes a general malty sweetness. In the mouth it is sweet and juicy with a creamy texture. Flavour has creamed corn, rice and malts with some metallic hints. Carbonation is low. Some bitterness in the finish. Not that bad a beer but totally forgettable.

330ml can from a Hanoi Circle K. Poured a crystal clear yellow golden colour with a short-lived, fizzy white head. The aroma is corn. The flavour is light bitter, with a light, crisp, watery, light hop bitter palate. Light bodied with average carbonation. It’s easy to see why people in Vietnam drink craft beer when this is the alternative.

33cl Fles van een Aziatische toko in Alkmaar. Licht moutig, grassig, ruikt eigenlijk als een strakke pils en doet daar in smaak niet veel voor onder. Degelijk bittertje in de finish, wel wat aan de zoete kant. Lichte body. Prima.

5-4-5-3-11 Bottle, as Bia Saigon Export. Pours clear yellow, with a big creamy head. Aroma is pilsner malts with cereals and hay, as well as floral hops. Medium body, with soft to average carbonation. Flavour is pilsner malts with cereals, hay and honey, as well as floral hops with grassy minerals. Fairly boring, but quite drinkable.

5/9/2023. Can courtesy of Matthias. Pours clear bright golden with a frothy white head. Aroma is malty, cornflower, cardboard. Medium sweetness and bitterness. Moderate body, average carbonation. Sweeter finish but with an underlying slightly harsh bitterness. Quite easily downed and quite enjoyed it as an after work beer, but it has been an unusually hot day in UK so that might have played a part.
