The drinks in Vietnam
Several foreign beers are brewed under licence in Vietnam, but good local brews include 333 (Ba Ba Ba) and Bivina. Bia hoi ("fresh" or draught beer) is served warm from the keg and then poured over ice. Its quality varies, but it's unadulterated with chemicals. Bia hoi has a 24-hour shelf life, which means the better places sell out by early evening. There are dozens of bia hoi outlets in Hanoi and Ho Chi Minh City, ranging from a few ankle-high stools gathered round a barrel on the pavement to beer gardens; most offer snacks of some sort. The stronger, pricier bia tuoi comes in a light or dark brew and is served from pressurized barrels. The most common local wine is rice alcohol ; the ethnic minorities drink stem alcohol (ruou can).
