As always tasting beer after a day spent on various long haul busses, tuk tuks and boats it was the best beer I’ve ever had. On reflection it’s passable darkish ale and a wonderful relief from the sea of fizzy lager to the south. Pours like a flat coke, slight biscuit taste, wee bit of hops and sweetness

Clear pale brown with a small tan head. Aroma of mild caramel, nuts, noble hops and mild skunk. Taste of noble hops, light toffee and sweet malt. Moderate astringent and sweet finish. Went okay with my Pud See Eew.

Filtered brown body with a fizzy white head that quickly collapses. Aroma is a bit cerealy but there is some nice light chocolate and caramel notes. The flavor is actually not half bad. Dry cocoa with the typical cereal notes. The best that I have had from Laos ;-) and one of the better Asian macro lagers that I have ever had.

Serving: 12 oz. bottle. Appearance: Dark cola color with a effervescent, tan head. The head was gone pretty quickly. Aroma: Light nose with some nuttiness, a slight metallic odor, and some caramel malt. Flavor: Light and simple with some nuttiness, some caramel, and a nice malt sweetness. Overall fairly unoffensive. Palate: Medium carbonation with a medium mouthfeel and a medium-short finish. Overall: Nothing I would seek out, but an interesting find at my regular sushi place. Not bad at all!

Not bad. Had a bottle. Poured a cola brown with a fizzy white head. Nose of slightly roasted malts. Very malty flavor with some nice caramel sweetness. Slightly metallic aftertaste. Pretty smooth, mildly creamy.

Bottle. Thought this was a Chinese beer until I got home and looked it up. I guess I shouldv’e looked at the bottle a little harder. Pours a clear, pale copper/brown body with a fizzy white head. This aroma was reallly bad IMO but there are some faint caramel malts, but otherwise sour and funky. Flavor isn’t so bad. Semi-sweet, vegetable, malty. Slight hop finish. Thin bodied. Overall not horrible. I’m sure if I was in Laos I’d drink many of these.

(bottle - 330 ml) Copper color with a thin off-white head. Aroma is full of caramel and nuts, with some hints of toffee and lightly toasted malts. Flavor begins with a smooth and nutty malt taste with a sweet caramel middle and a lightly crisp finish with hints of apples and malts.
