| This is your last chance to quaff Asia’s best suds before a new brewery is built. Beer Lao, proclaimed Asia’s finest in “The Best of Time” magazine last year, will increase production from 85 million litres to 120 million in 2006, after signing a joint agreement with the Danish company Danbrew. Even at 120 million litres, Beer Lao will be hard pressed to meet increasing consumer demands for more. We can’t decide what makes Beer Lao so good – its Mekong water (which to look at it is decidedly brown) or minimal hops. Too many other Asian brews, particularly Thailand’s Singha, are potently bitter. |
