Need a pale ale? This one ain't bad!
… AKA Donkey Hotel “Pale Ale”
Another one from Vietnam.
It’s got that fruity, hazy fruitiness that legally requires it to be called a “Pale Ale.”
It’s a bit too bitter for my liking, honestly… But if you’re the type who demands your drink be structurally indistinguishable from a rain cloud, then you’ve hit the jackpot.
It’s fruity, it’s sharp, it’s a bit of a mess.
Given that I’m in a “light mood” lately, I’m already pining for that light beer I had the other day.
I will say this: the can is cracking. Hot pink with some sort of animal inhaling a burger.
Perhaps that’s the secret? Maybe it needs a cheeseburger to balance out the existential dread?
Am I doing this wrong?
2.5/5 normally.
3/5 if you actually like pale ales.
Wait.
Holy Christ!!! It’s 6%?
Solid 3.5/5.
