Tap at the HCMC brewpub. Poured a clear light golden colour with a thin broken white head. The aroma is yeast, lemon lime citrus fruits, biscuit dough. The flavour is moderate sour with a smooth tart citrus fruit palate. Medium to light bodied with soft carbonation. Served warmer than I expected but that wasn’t a bad thing as it allowed the citrus flavours to shine through.

Tap at the Urban Basement, Ho Chi Minh City. Poured a hazy dark amber with a lasting frothy off white head. The aroma is malt, grassy citrus, light piney hop. The flavour is moderate bitter sweet with a crisp, malt, tropical citrus fruit, weedy dry hop bitter palate and a long bitter finish. Medium bodied with average to soft carbonation. Quite a shock to the system in some ways and by far the best beer I’ve had from East West.
