On tap at Hoa Vien Brauhaus - Hanoi, pours black with a small beige head. Aroma brings out toasted malt, light nuttiness and some dry bitter cocoa. Smooth palate, with a nice balance. This is actually pretty good.

On tap at Hoa Vien Brauhaus - Hanoi, pours a cloudy dark orange with a medium white head. Aroma brings out bready malt and a touch of grass. Flavour is clean, with light grass, cereal sweetness, and straw. Clean enough, with a smooth palate. Drinkable.

Draft - Dark caramel notes. Deep brown with a decent light brown head. Molasses and malty sweetness with a touch of raisin. Dark bready notes and some reasonable complexity. Solid.

Draft - Soft and soapy grains. Clear gold with a small white head. Soft bitter grains and a light bready finish. If soap is just the glass this isn’t half bad.

Tap at the brewpub. Poured a hazy reddish brown with a frothy off white head and a little broke lace. The aroma is light toasty caramel malt. The flavour is moderate to light sweet with a smooth malt, light fruit, hop bitter palate. Medium bodied with soft carbonation. Really rather good and better than anticipated.

Tap at the brewpub. Poured a slightly hazy light amber with a broken frothy white head. The aroma is lager malt some citrus and light hops. The flavour is moderate to light bitter with a light, fruity, hop bitter palate. Medium bodied with soft carbonation. Not bad and better than I expected. I could easily sink a few of these at this price. Shame my meal was six times the price of the beer!

Dark - cola brown with a dense light beige head. Nobles hops & light chocolate malts in the aroma. Soft carbonation on a med-light body. The taste is tangy chocolate syrup or fudge with a crisp finish. Another nice beer from Hoa Vien, these guys know what they are doing.

Lager - a clear gold with a nice head of foam. The aroma is bready, grainy, sweet with mild hop bitterness. Clearly the brewmaster here cares. Sharp carbonation on a light body. It has a bracing bitterness of a clean classic lager. A really nice example of what a lager should be. Good.
