Saigon Export beer is the only authentic Vietnamese beer brewed in Vietnam and sold in the UK and in the US. Brewed by Vietnam’s Saigon Beer Company (“Saigon Alcohol Beer and Beverages Corporation” or its abbreviation of “Sabeco”), based in the southern city of Ho Chi Minh City (or the old name “Saigon”). Sabeco is Vietnam’s leading beer producer and is state owned under the authority of Vietnam’s Ministry of Trade and Industry. Its main brands are Saigon Beer and 333 Beer, and it has about 50% of the market share of the country.
Saigon Export has been the most popular beer in Vietnam for many years. Its character embodies the Saigon’s spirit –charming and traditional, natural but with a liberal flavor. A strong brown bottle wrapped in a luxurious metallic label delivers an unforgettable experience.
Saigon Export is a bottom-fermented Pilsner-style beer from Vietnam, brewed by Sabeco. Light, with a low alcohol content, this blonde is soft and refreshing with a subtle, bitter hops note. In the glass, Saigon Export pours pale yellow under a small white head, releasing subtle malt and citrus waves, while the palate proves malty, with spicy, cereal notes.
Served well-chilled this Asian lager is sure to refresh.
