Clear, light yellow color. Plain, watery, low in flavor, no bitterness, and a bit of cardboard or wet paper. Standard international lager. Must just be a curiosity import, or else there are a lot of Laotians in the US who are looking for a touch of home. Perhaps they should just take a Mexican lager and rebottle it to save money.

Bottle. What can I say? It is your standard asian pale lager. It tastes how you imagine it would.

Has a clear yellow color with little head and some carbonation. Smell is of very light malts. Taste is also very lighty malted and has very little aftertaste. Overall for what it is and where it comes from it is not bad.

Nice clear yellow color, huge sticky white head. Horrible acidic, sour aroma. Vomit like. NASTY!! Thank god it had virtually no flavor or aftertaste. I didn’t stick around with this to see what happened when it warmed up slightly, but I would recommend trying this very cold.

Ernest (5183) - Boulder, Colorado, USA - JUL 29, 2004
Head is initially small, frothy, white, mostly diminishing. Body is clear light yellow. Aroma is lightly malty (cereal), trace hops (herbs), with a note of DMS. Flavor is moderately sweet, lightly bitter. Finish is lightly sweet, moderately bitter, unclean. Medium body, watery texture, lively carbonation. Mmmmm...Lao.

Creamed corn on cardboard in the nose and what you smell is what you get. Urin colored with the carbonation of a coke with no head to speak of. But Hey its from Loas, that counts for something .....right?

rlgk (5573) - Skövde, SWEDEN - JUN 2, 2004
Shiny golden, white head. No aroma. Flavor is water mixed with some water, and some water is added to make sure the tastes never gets any other way. Finishes in a... guess you know how....

Pours a hazy light yellow with no head, i can pretty much count the bubbles faster than they can rise. Aroma smells like skunky beer, hmmm what makes that smell? tastes like cream soda for a second then fades to a kinda sweet wheaty taste. blahhh but whateva had to try it once. only once.
