"Heheheh, is the 33 for Rolling Rock or is this some Viet beer? I wonder which came first? Has a map of the Chesapeake bay for a logo. Orange glow on a ubiquitous pale yellow lager appearance. Good carbonation and the taste is clean and crisp. First bite is impressive but it immediately fades. Good example of an enjoyable cheap pale lager. "

[2] Review by Th3B33RM@n from Hampton, VA, USA who has tried this beer once. (12/17/2007 11:25:13 AM)
"Well, this is a beer from Vietnam and not France. Pours out a straw color with a small white head that fizzles out, though the vigorous carbonation rising. Aroma was of flowers, grass and notes of fruits. Tastes is very clean and crisp with fruits and malts. Its pretty sweet and watered down."

[3] Review by lynxman from North Canton, OH, USA who has tried this beer many times. (12/16/2007 1:20:46 PM)
"As a vietnam vet this was a required ritual to drink this stuff. Urban legend had it that the VC used formaldehyde in it instead of alcohol to poison us evil Americans (aloong with ground glass in their locally bottled Coca Cola). Had it in an oriental restaurant here locally a couple of time and like most Asian beers I think is it thin, rather bland and really only good for the occasional "flashback""

[4] Review by mdsmith from Baltimore, MD, USA who has tried this beer once. (10/1/2007 4:07:21 PM)
"Well, the only reason I got this brew is because I thought in was from Vietnam and I wanted to try a brew from there. It's not from Vietnam and it sucks. What a waste of money."

[5] Review by Jutumull from Tallinn, Estonia who has tried this beer once. (6/14/2007 4:45:00 AM)
"Pale yellow color, not very stable foam, though it bubbles strongly. Aroma has not any interesting components in it. Taste is also boringly tasteless and watery. "
