Lao Beer

 Just saw this and thought it's worth a post to say that I totally agree, you cannot beat Lao Beer for quality, and price in this part of the world.

If you can get it, well make sure you give it a try.

When in Laos on business its probably the only thing I drink, I'm not normally known for having a beer at lunch, but when in Laos, its hard to pass up.  But then there's the French resto's in Vien Tien and the French wines at obscene prices. 

A place to put on your list to visit!

I used to pick it up at Seattle's Uwajimaya asian grocery store.  I have to agree, as a 17 year home brewer and beer gastronome, a very fine quality lager at a fair price considering it's quality.
