Vietnam Beer

Hello and welcome!

First time making a blog and even worse it is from my phone. My idea behind this blog is to write about beer and my homebrewing adventures. I just want to start by saying my spelling is that of a 3rd grader, but i will try my best. Though this blog is about beer, I may (and most likely will) talk or rant about other things, though most posts will be focused on beer.

Quick about me: I've been a homebrewer for about 3 years after my wife of 5 years at the time of writing this bought me a starter kit for christmas. Many homebrews under my belt and an amout of money I wish to not disclose I am starting to all-grain brew thanks to a few people (ted and paul).

On to my first post:

I normally associate asian beers in lacking of flavor much like budwieser. I must say I found a beer from Vietnam that totally shocked me. I am currently in Battle Lake, MN for a wedding when we stopped by the local store to pick up beer. They had make your own 6 pack which isn't anything new, but there selection was more impressive then most stores in the Twin Cities. Hrlida (or maybe it is Halida.. can't tell with this font) is pretty damn good. I'd recommend checking it out. It's a light in color but medium body beer. It packs more flavor then any other asian beer I have had. Now only if I had a bowl of Pho to go with it. :)
