Comments:
This weekend my wife and I went to our favourite Thai restaurant to get some Thai food. I usually like to try different beers that are hard to find so I went with Saigon Export. Saigon export's website can be browsed here, however, if you don't speak Vietnamese (like me), you'll have trouble understanding what it says.
Saigon Export is a rice beer like domestic Budweiser. It pours pale yellow and drinks light and smooth. It provides a pleasant and subtle aftertaste opposite to strong aftertastes of traditional European lagers or pilsners.
It went really well with my beef chow mien dinner. For $1.95 per bottle that makes a six pack fairly cheaper than domestic rice beers and obviously cheaper than other premium imports. A great deal for a pretty good beer.
