Tiem Bia Ga by Rooster Beers, Bui Vien

Rooster Beers brews in Saigon with drinkability first, and Tiem Bia Ga is where to taste the full range straight from the source, from the crisp OOO light beer to a Double IPA and a Dak Lak Nitro Stout made with local coffee. Pavement stools, neon and a steady stream of passers-by make it a laid-back counterpoint to the louder bars nearby.

Grab a street-side seat early in the evening before Bui Vien hits full volume, and order the Dak Lak Nitro Stout. Bring your drinking buddy too: dogs get water bowls and a warm welcome.
