Ernest (5621) - Boulder, Colorado, USA - MAR 30, 2002
Head is initially small, fizzy, white, fully diminishing. Body is clear light yellow. Aroma is virtually nil; some cooked corn (DMS) evidence. Flavor is lightly bitter, lightly sweet. Finish is lightly bitter, unclean. Light to medium body, watery texture, fizzy carbonation. I’m a little embarrassed that I had to suffer through this just to say I’ve tried something from Vietnam. But then I felt better when I realized that it was the brewers who should be embarrassed, whose company motto is clearly ’how low can we go?’

Typical cheap pale lager swill. Uninteresting so that makes it easy to drink much like water is easy to drink...it isn’t foul. Hows that for a glowing review?

HopRedHead (121) - Perth, AUSTRALIA - MAY 16, 2013
Local beer for Vietnam. Tastes like fizzy water and burnt metal. Not much else to say.

A lager for a sunny day, flavourless and watery. Although not bad to share a conversation with a couple of friends.

MrBeerFanatic (722) - Buffalo, New York, USA - APR 14, 2013
Pours a light golden color with a boozy head. Aromas corn, grain, and hay. Flavors of hay, grain, and slight metal aftertaste. Leaves a medium bitter finish. Light corn malt sweetness. More on the hay side than any other light flavor.

MrHangover (1099) - Den Haag, NETHERLANDS - MAR 29, 2013
Bottle brought from Morocco. Pale golden color, white head. Aroma is very skunked with a grainy background. Flavor is bland and nothing special. Not a very good lager in my humble opinion.

hfmejias (352) - Dover, Delaware, USA - FEB 17, 2013
12 Oz. Bottle. Vietnam Version. poured golden with a nice white head, clear. Aroma was bread like (yeast) some hints of malts and fruit. Taste kind of watery, in line with aroma, malts yeast and fruits... Not too much to it. Drinkable I guess.
