THIS JOURNEY IS NOW COMPLETE! This was a challenge I undertook from Feb 2011 to Feb 2012. Thanks to everyone that kept me going! Feel free to read through and comment, I am now also periodically adding reviews here as I sample other beers that I did not come across during the challenge.

Halida
Here we have a Vietnamese beer from Hanoi. It also bears the mark of the elephant, at first I thought this to be
a direct diss to Carlsberg. A slap to the face. A throwing down of the proverbial gauntlet.
Until I read 'under the supervision of Carlsberg' on the bottle.
Life is less interesting in the corporate dominated world isn't it?
It's a bit of a strange one really, I can't exactly put my finger on some of the flavours. It has a subtle, but
distinct taste to it. Maybe it's the malt or hops, maybe it's the water. I can't even explain it really you'd
have to drink one yourself.
It's not mind blowing, but it's definitely a drinkable beer. Not great, but decent.
