Dai Viet -


Nice tasting lager. I'd drink it again. Although pretty much a light beer.

Dalat beer - Local micro brew...



These pictures were about as focused as my own vision at the time....
This beer is more of a story. I decided to sit at a local bar and by these a couple of these litre bottles at 6000d each(~33c US). 2 turned into many when I got into lengthy mime conversations with local drunks "Huh!" and "Wha?". Yes that was there names. They bought me beers and I bought them beers and we were one big happy bunch by the end of the night. Specially when they drove me home on their motorbike... yeh drinking and driving!
The funny part was they didn't speak english and I had no clue what they were saying...
Still it was an ok beer, definitely good for the price. Not the cleanest of tastes thouugh.

Nguyen Du Brauhof - Some bar in Dalat-Vietnam

Interesting Dark Ale. Tasty, but couldn't drink much of them in a row. Still only cost me 16000(1US) for a pint in Dalat.

Hanoi beer-


This claims to be the beer of choice of Hanoi. Still its not sold as much here as Saigon beer interestingly enough. Also it is definitely not what the locals drink. They just go to the mini-brews around town, or they drink Saigon.
I've had so many lagers of late that I really don't have anymore adjectives for them. This one again is middle pack, drinkable, particularly on a hot day, but not good for getting innebriated. Still it tasted alright and I'd get it again in a pinch.

Luda -

Seems to be the local staple in Hue, Vietnam. Moreso than a beer called Hue anyway. Another lager on the long list. Cheap and not bad, fitting in as a not spectacular nor garbage beer. DOn't know what else I can say.
Lager,
