Discover Vietnam’s BEST Kept Secret CRAFT BEER Scene in Quy Nhon

Discover Vietnam’s BEST Kept Secret CRAFT BEER Scene in Quy Nhon

( Music) Quy Nhon might be known as a quiet coastal 
escape, but it beer scene tells a different story entirely. East West Brewing chose this 
beachfront location as one of their multiple   tap rooms across Vietnam for good reason. 
Local establishments like Bia Duk 1980, which translates to German beer 1980, prove the 
city’s commitment to quality brews runs deep. Joined by our Vietnamese friends and a fellow 
Canadian, we explored everything from bustling   local spots to unique, a slightly hidden gem 
down a quiet street on the city’s outskirts. Turns out when a coastal town takes its beer this 
seriously, you’re in for some excellent drinking. So, when you visit a sleepy coastal city here in 
Vietnam, the last thing you would expect is to   find a lot of craft beer options. So, in this 
video, we have chosen some top places here in Queen Ya for you to visit for craft beer, starting 
with East West Brewery. Yeah, check it out. So, the nice thing here about East West is they 
have a lot of options for beer. be here. So,   they got an IPA, a pale ale. They’ve got an 
summer, which actually won beer of the month. Not sure when, but they’ve won some awards on all 
of these beers. Uh they got a sake beer, which   we’re going to show you. Uh they got a Golden 
Berry Blast, East West rosé, which we had, which is really good. That’s fresh berries and citrus 
in there, so it’s kind of like a sour. They got a   a white passion fruit wit. Uh Cali common, which 
this one’s really good. It’s got a piny kind of fruity taste to it, a lot like the IPA. And then 
here they’ve got the uh East West wit blanc. This is Shayna’s favorite. They don’t have it right 
now unfortunately, but it’s got like orange citrus   tones, coriander spice notes. So really good. And 
then a a pilsner. That one’s also good. And then they got some dark beers as well. So they’ve got a 
coffee vanilla porter, a Belgian blonde, a Belgian dark, and then a stout as well. So again, if you 
like those dark beers, you got a good selection   here. And again, all of these have won awards, so 
they’re doing a really good job here. You can get a flight if you want. So if you want to try a 
bunch of the different ones, um that’s a king’s   flight. They got a tasting flight. So just four on 
that. And then they actually do ciders as well or have ciders. Dalat cider house. So it’s Dalat near 
here somewhat um up in the mountain. So they got some ciders from there. And they do like a bunch 
of different uh beer and cider cocktails which   is really cool and unique. And then they got sake 
as well. Uh mua sake. So yeah, they do cocktails, they have food and stuff here as well. So, it’s 
a place you can hang out for the evening and just   yeah, have a lot of good craft beer and yeah, 
the rain just went by, so they’re just putting everything back up right now. But, uh, it’s just 
a cool place to hang out and, uh, definitely recommend coming here if you’re in Queen. All 
right, so I ended up going with the East West   IPA. This is a ABV of 6.7% and an IBU of 54. As 
you can see, it’s got a nice color to it. You can see through it a little bit. Uh, so the aroma is 
pine, citrus, and passion fruit. And it’s a soft maltiness, fruity, natural, light bitterness. 
So have had it before. It is really good. Yeah, it’s on it’s lighter on the hoppy side. It’s 
not super bitter, but it’s just there enough for those of you that are maybe just getting into 
the IPA beers. This is going to be one that you   want to have just to kind of get that pallet used 
to it, and then you can move to like a stronger IPA beer. But yeah, it’s really refreshing. 
It’s nice in the heat and then yeah, hanging   out by the beach. So, highly recommend getting 
this if you’re coming to East West. All right, guys. I ordered something very unique. I saw 
on the menu a sake beer and I absolutely love Japanese sake. So, to have a sake flavored beer, 
it’s going to be interesting. Let’s see how it is. That’s very good. Very refreshing. I don’t 
really taste I’m just being honest. I don’t really taste too much sake in it. I’m tasting 
more like um just freshness, like refreshing, a little bit of bitterness. Yeah. Same. Yeah. So, 
I’m going to read on the menu here actually. So, it’s a ABV 5%. The IBU is 20. So, not a super 
hoppy beer. A little bit on the lighter side as far as flavor. It says that the aroma is bright 
citrus and tropical hop aroma. I get that. I can smell that. Actually smells very like kind of 
like orange and lemon. The flavor sweet malt, umami, and a floral finish. So, 
I definitely get the maltiness. I’m not tasting a floral finish to be honest. And 
the umami, I don’t I don’t know. I don’t know. I like it. It’s a very nice crisp, refreshing, 
lighter tasting beer. It’s more like what I like for a craft beer because I actually honestly 
don’t really like too many craft beers because   they’re always too hoppy for me or too bitter. So, 
I always go with something lighter like this. This to me actually tastes like the Pilsner I’ve had 
here before. I was expecting it to be more sake forward and I’m not really tasting the sake. 
I don’t know why. could just be my taste buds.   I’m sure everybody will taste it differently. So, 
um, but I think it’s very important that you hear from our local Vietnamese friend Phuc what he 
thinks about the sake beer. So, he’s up next. I got to have a taste of this as well, 
just to see what Shayna’s talking about.   I like to taste. Make sure I’m telling the 
truth. Yeah. Make sure I’m on to her. No, but I want to see like like she said, the sake 
is not really coming through. So, let’s see. No, I don’t get a sake taste from it. What I get 
is kind of like a champagne taste. You have that   uh you have the sparkling wine kind of. You 
can tell there’s like a different alcohol in there. It’s not just the beer, but it is 
really refreshing. It’s nice and crisp,   and that is a good one to have on a hot 
day sitting here. So yeah, if you’re uh if you’re new to craft beer, you want something 
light that’s not as hoppy, then definitely go with   one of those uh or this one or like one of the 
other ones that is super low IBU. But this one, yeah, is definitely uh more palatable to people 
that are new to craft beer. One, two, three. Lum. Cheers everyone. All right, so we are at the next location here, 
which is close to where we’re staying. A little   spot is so cool. The it looks new. The owner is 
like super nice as well. We came once just for a couple beer, but it’s called B Duke 1980. And 
I’m going to show you guys what it’s like. Now, they don’t have their own craft beer here. They 
do have draft beer. So, they have good beers on   tap for a reasonable price. And it’s just like 
one of those places we wanted to show you guys, even though they don’t carry their own craft 
beer, but it’s a place you want to come hang   out. They do have some food as well, little snacks 
that you want uh and different dishes. But yeah, it’s just like a nice atmosphere. As you can 
see, like right on the street here. We’re one   block from the ocean and just a bunch of 
locals around. So, these are the types of places you want to hang out with the motorbikes 
honking as I go by. But yeah, check it out. All right. So, this place here has a lot of 
European craft beer on tap. I’ve got the Reaper Weiss, which is a wheat ale. You again, you get it 
on tap. So, you can get it in a can as well here, but opted for this. It’s a It’s a full pint. 
63,000 dong for this. Cool setting as you guys saw right here. They’re playing like AI country 
and AI country rock music. So, you got the whole atmosphere here with the Harley-Davidson. 
But let’s try this. See how it is. Yeah, I love a good wheat ale like this. You 
definitely get that flavor right away. It’s It   is crisp. It’s clean. That’s a nice thing about 
getting a lot of the craft beer here in town is they keep it cold. It’s not coming out warm. So, 
you get a nice crisp, clean beer. Yeah, this is   really good. be interested to see how it is in a 
can, but definitely prefer it this way. But again, this is like they don’t make their own beer here. 
They just have everything on top and it’s really   good. So Shay is going to tell you what she got 
and you guys have probably had it before. It is pretty popular around the world. All right, so as 
Chris said, many of you have already tried this   beer before, I’m sure. It’s a very popular one. 
It’s from France. It’s the Kronenberg 1664. Now, I like this beer. I have had it before. I 
just haven’t had it for a long time. So,   I’ve been actually really feeling like having 
something like this again, just because I’ve been having a lot of the same types of beer since we’ve 
been in Thailand and now in Vietnam as well. So, it’s nice to go back and try a classic that I 
remember from the past. So, this is it here. And it’s weird because because I am so picky about any 
sort of like craft beer or just some draft beers in general. I am surprised that I like this one so 
much. Whether it comes on tap like this or in the bottle, it is more of a cloudy beer. And usually 
I have to be able to see through my beer. I like it to be very, very clean and just clear looking. 
And I usually don’t like cloudy beer. But some of you may know even though it’s cloudy like this, 
it still has a very light, crisp flavor. So here I’m going to try it again for the first time in 
a long time. I’m sure it’s going to be amazing. Yeah. I love how it has such a refreshing, crisp 
flavor. Very, very citrusy. And that’s another thing I like too because I am more particular 
about beers. I like beer to have some sort of like a fruit forward flavor like a citrus or something 
like lime or or lemon or grapefruit even. So, this is a really good one for me. And it’s not poppy 
at all. It’s very very just very light and clean tasting. It looks like it should be more like kind 
of malty and like heavy feeling when you drink it,   but it’s not at all. It’s very, very nice and 
refreshing. So, this one is a really really good one whether you have it on tap or whether 
you have it in the bottle. I need to say,   as many of our viewers know how much of a deep 
love Chris has for AI music, he is quite enjoying this AI country music right now. So, don’t be 
surprised if you hear more AI country music in our other videos, not just the one with Cowboy, 
cause I think he’s getting some ideas now. Yeah,   I’m getting some lyrics down here. I was like, 
of course, we have to come to a craft beer place that has AI music for him, right? So, I think 
they should hire me to make more. He’s extra   happy. Down Shayna and I found our spot. Chris 
with a reaper weize and cold and hiitting just right. She’s got her Kronenberg in hand. 1664 on 
tap. While the speakers play some A.I country. We just sit back and laugh. Good friends, cold beer, 
and a song that ain’t quite real. But the moment’s feeling perfect and that’s all we need to feel. 
So, now we’re going to let our lovely Vietnamese friends let you know what they think about their 
draft beer that they’re having here. And they’re going to tell all of our Vietnamese friends in 
the local Vietnamese language, of course. Hi, Mac. All right. So, like I said, they do have food here as 
well. So, you can have beer and some food while you hang out. And we’ve got some shrimp here 
with a butter cheese sauce. So, the tail’s on   there still. I’m just going to go raw dog and pick 
it up because it’s easier. But yeah, here we go. M. If you don’t like it, you have to have one. 
That is so good. Yeah. Buttery, but that cheese flavor comes through. Oh, man. When they’re not 
looking, I’m going to steal a whole plate. It’s nice, too, cause they give you some banh mi with 
it. So, the bread to dip in the sauce as well,   so you can, you know, once you’re done the shrimp, 
you can savor all that cheese sauce as well. Yeah, it’s really good. Again, I had no idea they had 
this kind of food here, but now we know. So,   you know, we might be here a few more 
times on our trips to Quy Nhon. All right, so we are at stop number three, which is Chong 
Bio. It’s right across from the lake. I don’t know if I’m pronouncing it right. Sorry if I’m not to 
our Vietnamese viewers. But we came here the other   night and this place is cool. They have really 
good food. It’s a very local spot. You can see got they have the little tables out, the little 
plastic chairs, and again, right across from the   lake. You got the road here. Just it’s a wonderful 
atmosphere. And they have the beer from Hanoi, which is a craft beer that’s made in Hanoi. We’ve 
had it here the one night and then we also had it in Ho Chi Min when we were there. We went to a 
restaurant there and they had it as well. So,   you can get it just on the tap or they actually 
have these like big um they’re like uh aluminum bottles and you can get those as well. So, yeah. 
Again, really cool atmosphere. They have really   good beef noodles here. We are going to get some 
food so we’ll show you that as well. We’re just waiting for everyone to show up. This is a classic 
spot in Quy Nhon that you want to come to. And   again, all these places are going to be linked in 
the description below. So, if you want to come to the exact same places we’re going to, just hit 
the link, save it in your maps, and then you can do the same tour. So, we do have like six or seven 
places saved, but we are at 20 after 8. It’s going a little slower than uh anticipated. We’re having 
a couple more beers at each spot. Uh just hanging out with friends. So, it’s really cool. like 
we’re just getting to, you know, socialize and   learn things about Vietnam that we wouldn’t have 
otherwise learned with our Vietnamese friends. So, uh, and then again, our friend Peter who’s from 
Cam Loops. He hasn’t been on the camera. He’s   shy. But, yeah, it’s really cool hanging out 
with someone from Canada from Cam Loops and, uh, lower mainland in the Shushwap where we’re 
from. So, we get to talk about, you know,   a little bit of that that area and we can all 
relate. So, yeah, we’re going to head in now. Going to get some beer. We’re going to wait 
for them to show up. They should be here soon.   We’re actually like the building we’re staying is 
not far from here. So yeah, this place is so cool. All right. So, we all just received 
our glasses of Bia Hoy Hanoi. We have had it before like Chris mentioned and 
we love this beer. As you can see, it’s a nice clear looking beer. It’s not cloudy. It’s not 
heavy. Very light tasting and very crisp, clean, refreshing, kind of comparable to what we’ve had 
back in Canada. I know they have it in the States, other parts of the world as well, but we would 
drink it more so in Canada. The Miller Genuine   Draft beer, MGD for MGD. That’s what I compare 
this to. This is more up my alley as far as beers go. So, I I love this Hanoi beer. It’s delicious. 
Yeah. If you have a chance to have it anywhere, definitely do so. It’s really good. And here 
it’s always really cold, just like the other   ones we had as well. One thing we’ve noticed in 
Vietnam, when you get any sort of craft beer, draft beer, anything like that, it’s always 
nice and cold and it stays cold for a while, which you need in a hot climate, of course. 
So, we love cold beer. Yeah. Actually,   I find that when you come to these places with the 
draft beer or the craft beer, it’s more cold than if you go to a restaurant where they just have it 
in the can. Usually, that’s just on the counter   and you have to have it with ice. Or if you go 
somewhere where it’s on tap, it’s you’re pretty much guaranteed it’s ice cold. So, they’re doing 
a great job with the temperature of the beer for   sure. Yeah. And uh we have ordered some food as 
well. So, we’re going to show you what we ended up getting. They have peanuts on the table. They 
have a rice. It’s like a rice cracker that you   can have as well. It’s just there. or they’ll 
charge you at the end. But the peanuts here are like super good. Those rice crackers that you see 
on the table as well, they are really good, too,   because they have toasted sesame seeds in them. 
They have a really nice sesame forward flavor, which I love anything sesame. So, and it’s a nice 
light snack to be having with beer. Sometimes   you’ll get like um a chili garlic sauce, so you 
can dip the rice paper in that. It’s really good. Yeah. But as you guys saw in the B-roll, this 
place, there’s so many people here. They love it.   This is a type of place that the Vietnamese people 
like to come in this type place. We’re usually always the only foreigners and we don’t understand 
why. Then again, this isn’t a super touristy place   and the area that we’re in as well. So, uh, we 
like just being the only foreigners here. Everyone just welcomes us and they’re so friendly. Yeah, 
they’re all saying hi as you guys and we’re just   sitting and intermingling with the local people, 
which is awesome. So, the best way to travel. So, we love the Vietnamese people for having us. You 
have excellent people, food, beer, and a beautiful country. So yeah, and beautiful beaches. So yeah, 
we’re going to get our food and we’ll show you   guys what we ended up getting. All right, so our 
food has arrived. We got these like they’re an basically a shrimp wrapped in a rice paper that’s 
deep fried and you dip it in a hot sauce. These are so good. There’s also a leaf you get with it, 
which Shayna just said it tastes like horseradish. It’s a cabbage, but it does. It tastes like 
horseradish. That’s really good. I love that.   You’re supposed to wrap it in it. That’s so 
good. That’s Yeah, it’s got a bite to it, a spice to it. Whatever this leaf is, the 
root, it’s really good. Maybe one of our   Vietnamese viewers can comment below 
what it what it’s called. But yeah, this is a shrimp. Deep fried shrimp 
in a little rice paper roll. So good. It’s really good. So again, it’s like deep fried 
shrimp, but again wrapped in a rice paper. So it’s got an outer shell to it. It’s not like a tempura 
or something like that. It’s got more of a crunch   to it. That’s really good. And yeah, this with 
the shrimp. Really good. The other dish we got is a beef noodle. And I’ve had this uh in Vung 
Tau. I had it once there. It’s really good. So, it’s like a It’s like a ramen noodle, like 
a mama noodle. And then it’s got different   vegetables in it. You got some spring onion. 
You got uh it looks like a maybe a green bean or something like that. Some uh carrot, bunch 
of different stuff. But it’s always so good. So, the best way to describe that so you guys 
understand is like getting your favorite chowmain dish at your favorite Chinese restaurant and 
multiplying that by two or three. It’s just   so good. So fresh. The flavor is overall 
amazing. There’s not a lot of sauce on it. It’s more of the vegetables coming through. 
A little bit of seasoning on it. But yeah, you can eat a dish of this quite easily to 
yourself. And the thing about Vietnam is   everyone gets together, they order all the 
dishes, and then everybody just shares. So that’s what we’re doing right now. Everybody’s 
sharing the plates, and then if you want more,   you order more. It’s easy to do. The other dish 
that we got, this here, which you guys are seeing, which is a fermented pork, mango, cucumber, 
chilies, uh there’s some mint. It’s called vidu vidu. It’s a b fermented pork skin. So, 
this is the fermented pork here. And it Yeah, it looks translucent. It looks like it’s not even 
cooked. We had to ask cuz we thought maybe it was   like it came out raw, but no, that’s just how 
it is cuz it’s fermented. It kind of like a uh Peter was saying like ceviche where they cook 
it with with lime, but this is like fermented. So,   it’s like it’s been sitting I probably I don’t 
know how they do. Maybe they do it in like a pot or like under the ground or something like that. 
Like a lot of fermentation uh way they do it in   Asia. Trying to get a perfect bite here. Close. 
So, we got mango, we got cucumber, we got some of the basil, and the fermented pork. So, let’s 
try it. I’ve never had this before. Here we go. I need a chili. I need some spice. Okay, so a lot of you are going to be like, “Oh, 
fermented pork.” Eh, it’s actually really good. It doesn’t have like any crazy flavor or anything. 
It’s just got a texture. It’s a chewy texture. But again, it’s just a texture. There’s no crazy 
taste to it. So, you just get that kind of like chewy. It’s not even a bad texture. It’s just 
really good. I can’t even explain. It’s just a really good texture, but you got that freshness 
from all the vegetables, the mango, the spice. It’s kind of like a sum but it’s with fermented 
pork. That’s really good. If you ever see that, try it. Give it a try or come hang out with some 
of your Vietnamese friends and share it if you’re   scared to try it. They’ll love it. So, yeah. 
Overall, the food here is really good. We again, we’ve been here before. We had to come again. 
Yeah, highly recommend this place. Very local, right by the lake. Super easy to get to. 
You’re going to love it. All right. So,   foot and Jen just let me know that this is 
actually pig ear. So, it’s fermented pig ear, not just fermented pig skin. It’s the ear. And it’s 
good. Got a good texture to it. I’m usually like really weird about textures with food, but I like 
that one. It’s not super chewy. He likes to nibble on pig’s ears. Not mine. Pig’s ears. I nibble on 
yours, too. But she gets weird about it. You can keep doing that to the pigs instead. Yeah. It’s 
our 16th anniversary coming up and she’s like,   “You can’t nibble on my ear anymore. You got to 
get pig salad. Do it to the pigs. Yeah. But yeah, if you get a chance to try it, it’s really 
good. It’s not weird or it’s a good flavor. There it is. There it is. Cable right there for 
us. Thank you so much. Thank you. Have a good   night. Yeah. Have a nice day. You too. Okay, so we 
are at our final location in this video. We were going to do six different places, maybe seven. 
But when you start hanging out with friends,   start talking, having some food, sharing 
conversation, sharing food together. Time flies. So, we ended up uh, you know, staying at 
the place a little bit longer than expected, but   we wanted to show you this place. This is called 
Unique, this place. And it is unique. I mean, they got a cool background as you guys can see 
right now. It is getting later. It’s almost 10:00,   so we wanted to make sure we hit up this 
place before they close at 11:00. But, they do have their own beer. They have uh they 
have other uh types of beer as well. They have   1664 here as well. Um, yeah, just other ones. 
But they do have some IPAs and, uh, a couple others. I’m going to go over the menu with you as 
well. But yeah, it’s a cool location here. They   have obviously little Instagram spots here, so you 
can put the wings behind you. See? And then also, uh, yeah, like there’s a phone booth here. Just 
Yeah, really cool vibe here. Just down a quiet   street. Like there’s not much going on down 
here. I’m going to show you. It’s crazy. Yeah, it’s just like it’s on the um south end of the 
city. But yeah, it’s just a quiet street down here. Not much going on other than this place. And 
yeah, just a bunch of locals hanging out, enjoying themselves. They do have food here as well. We are 
full. We’re not going to order food here, but I’ll   show you what they have in the menu. But yeah, 
this is just one of those cool little spots here that you can come to in Quy Nhon, enjoy some local 
craft beer. It’s just it’s just so cool. Like this whole video just came about because when we were 
driving through town, we just kept noticing craft beer, craft beer, craft beer. There’s some right 
by the beach that we haven’t been able to go to.   We definitely plan on coming back to Quy Nhon. So 
maybe in the future when we come back, we’ll show you those other places as well. But yeah, they got 
like the fridge here with they actually have beer   in here. They’ve got uh Duvel. Um yeah, a few 
different ones in here. So there is the outside area. There is I don’t know if there’s there’s 
stairs that go up, but I don’t think you can go up   there. They got a bunch of bottles and stuff here. 
And then um they do have an inside park, too. So, they have fans. They have the bar here. So, all 
the all the different bottles and stuff. And yeah, it’s just a cool atmosphere. Look at this. They 
have an actual map right here. But everybody sits outside. So, that’s the place to be. But yeah, if 
you do want to sit inside, they do have uh fans going. I don’t see AC, but it’s cooler outside 
right now. The temperature is quite nice. So, yeah, we’re going to wait for our friends to show 
up. We’re going to order a couple beer here. We’re   going to tell you what we get and let you know how 
it tastes and all that stuff. But, yeah, I’m going to go over the menu quickly with you. All right, 
so first of all, excuse my Barney resemblance. I   look a little purple cuz of the 1664 sign that’s 
up there, but it is giving me light so I can film this for you guys. So, I quickly go over the craft 
beer on tap menu. So, they have a summer blonde. They have a Hawaii pale ale. I’m going to get that 
one to show you guys what it’s like and tell you   what it’s like. It’s got pineapple from Vietnam 
in it. It’s a uh Belgian beer type. But yeah, that sounds really interesting. Again, they have 
1664, like I said, on top. Uh they have a unique uh IPA, which is one of their own. So, unique is 
where we’re where we’re at right now. Uh there’s   a King Stout, and then uh they have a New England 
IPA as well that they do here. And then they have a few different like like I said bottle beers you 
can get that were in the cooler. So a pretty good selection of different types of beer, but they 
do have quite a few on top as well. I quickly   go over the menu a little bit. Uh it is quite big 
as you can see. Like that’s just one part of it. And then the backside too. So um a mix of western 
food and I think there’s some Vietnamese. Yeah, there’s some Vietnamese food in here as well. 
So um so yeah they have coal cuts so they have like charcutteri here they have sausages 
they got Russian smoked cheese. One thing   we’ve been noticing is a lot of the places 
here they have the smoked string cheese that you get from like Russia and Kazakhstan. 
Super good. Our friend Tibor in Kelowna,   he brought some back from Kazakhstan for us. It 
was like the best. If you ever see that stuff, get it. It’s so good. And then uh what 
else they have? Like shrimp rolls,   um potato wedges, French fries of course. So, 
all sorts of appetizers. They’ve got different beef plates. You got like beef ribs, beef steak. 
Um, they got different pork ones. So, pork ribs, different salads. They have a cucumber salad. 
Shayna, you see that? They have a Shayna loves   cucumber salad. Um, lots of European, I guess. 
Yeah, lots of European stuff in here. So, it’s a really well-rounded menu. Chicken wings, 
boneless chicken stuffed with meat. Chicken Oh, boneless boneless chicken wings stuffed meat. 
So, they must have uh something stuffed inside   of it. doesn’t say what it is, but that sounds 
interesting. Um, they got some different seafood uh dishes. So, they got like different salmon 
dishes. And then they’ve got, it’s funny, they   have it set as carbohydrates. You You got to have 
your carbs, those of you from the United States. So, spaghetti, baked bolognes spaghetti. They’ve 
got uh what else? Pizza. They got some vegetarian options as well. So, yeah, very well-rounded menu 
for food. definitely be worth coming out here for   dinner and then having a couple local beers, 
local craft beers. But yeah, like I said, once our friends get here, we’ll order some beer and 
then we’ll let you know what we ended up getting. Heat. Heat. All right. Sorry, not the best lighting in this place   just cuz they’ve got the ambiance set 
nicely. It’s not good for filming, but it’s good for hanging out. But so I ended 
up getting the Hawaii Pale Ale. I’m going to just read over what the description is on 
the menu. The perfect combination of the   best Belgian beer type and Vietnamese pineapple 
creates a type of beer with mellow sweetness, tropical fruity flavor, smooth head, and 
passionate aroma. A refreshing drink that smashes the summer heat. Doesn’t just take down 
the summer heat, it smashes it. So, let’s see. Right away, you get that pineapple just   smelling it. the aroma as you’re 
drinking it. Like that’s so good. It just tastes like like if you took like fresh 
pineapple juice and just poured that in your beer. That is really good. That’s probably one of the 
best fruit beers I’ve had. Okay. So good. Like Shayna just tried it. She likes it. But yeah. Wow. 
I was not expecting that. That that flavor, the pineapple comes through. Again, a nice uh crisp, 
light beer. Perfect for smashing the summer heat. Exactly what it is. So, yeah, I like that one. 
You guys got to try it. You got to come here to   Unique and try it. That’s That’s awesome. And then 
Shayna got the the summer blonde. She’s going to let you know how that is. I don’t think I’m going 
to be as exciting as dramatic as Chris was about   his beer. But is so good, though. I’m sure mine 
is good, too. But I don’t know. He’s going crazy over that beer right now. So, obviously, that’s 
one you have to try when you come to Unique. So,   mine is the summer blonde. It’s ABV 5% and the IBU 
is 15, which seems perfect for me. Low IBU, not too hoppy. And I can already see nice and clear 
like I like it. This is a delicate combination of 100% German high-grade malt and hops. The beer has 
a sparkling gold color, a delicate and rich taste, and the typical aroma of traditional German craft 
beer. Yep. It smells like a German craft beer. That I like that. That’s very I say this 
about every beer cuz all of my beers are always refreshing because they’re light flavor, 
very refreshing, very crisp. No citrus in this one. Like the other ones I’ve had that have 
had that citrusy um kind of fruity flavor, there is no citrus, no fruit in this. This is just 
a really clean, crisp German craft beer called Summer Blonde that I highly recommend anybody 
comes here and has. If you don’t want something   that has a fruity flavor but has a light flavor 
to it, this is the one for you. So, very good. All right, so we have shut down Unique. They 
actually kicked us out. No, they didn’t kick   us out, but they are closing up now. And yeah, 
it was a nice place to hang out. Very quiet area like you guys saw. But overall, what a fun day. 
Just uh craft beer hopping. They there’s a couple places they hadn’t been yet, so it was cool to 
bring them along and show them places that like   this. And yeah, it was just even more special with 
our friends. So remember guys, if and when you’re going to visit Quy Nhon because you need to, it’s 
an amazing city on the beach here in Vietnam. You   need to contact Fu and Jen. They will find you the 
absolute perfect place for you to stay during your vacation or even if you want to live here long 
term because it’s a great place and you’re going   to want to. So these are the people that you can 
trust. Contact them and book your stay when you’re here. Yeah, their WhatsApp’s in the description 
below so it’s easy to contact them. And yeah,   this was fun. Like we actually didn’t hit all 
the places we wanted to, like I said. And there’s stuff on our list that wasn’t even like what we 
were going to go to. So there’s a lot of places   that have craft beer here. If you are a craft beer 
connoisseur, this is going to be a place for you. Super lowkey, chill beach city here in Vietnam. 
Yeah, we love it and it’s growing on us and it’s going to be sad to leave, but we are going to 
come back and see a lot. Yeah. Yeah, exactly. So,   we’ll leave the video off there. If you guys
