| Beershine (261), Where Climate Suits My Clothes, Vietnam | | October 23, 2009 Strange place, flat vibe, basically an impersonal business lunch spot. Not really beery or oriented towards bar/drinking culture. Large place off a main street, one flight up from ground level. No actual bar, more a restaurant. Extensive menu, food is not bad, not great. Not a memorable experience. | | nate2g (151), Brisbane, Australia | | September 22, 2009 The brewing kettles are visible just behind the bar, and the guys were brewing on the day of my visit, with the smell of cooked malt wafting through the air. That was one of the few highlights unfortunately. The beers are well below average and the food was just plain scary. The service was hard to flaw though, with a few girls waiting the bar. I seem to have gotten used to the constant bombardment of questions I get thrown everywhere I go in SE Asia and elsewhere - the "Who are you?", "Where you from?", "How old you?", "What you do?". "Well", I say, "my name’s Nate, I’m from Aus, I’m 26 and I’m a wandering neanderthal that drinks excessively to make me forget my insecurities and continual bad judgments I make on a day to day basis - say has anyone told you you’d make a great wife?" To sum it up...come for the possibility of meeting your next ex-wife, or come for the beers, or don’t. The choice is yours. | | TBone (123), Pori, Finland | | March 1, 2009 Place at the busy big street. Muilti storey Czech beer hall type place. Equipment visible in the middle of main hall. Logo is Gambrinus rip off. Lots of personnel, we got own personal servant ... Three own beers. | | omhper (111), Stockholm, Sweden | | February 10, 2009 (Visited May 2008) Huge place along the busyTrang Quang Khai. Lots of shiny copper on display and with the usual massive anmount of service around. Had their three beers at the bar, the ywere correct but not overly full of character. A decent brwepub, but not my top choice in Hanoi. |
