Thrillist, using crowd-sourced data from cost of living site, Numbeo, just published a list of the countries with the world’s cheapest beer. Somewhat surprisingly, our fair Vietnam took the crown with the average beer priced at $0.76. But things make a bit more sense when you realize that notoriously cheap bia hoi is included in the math.
Here’s what they said about Vietnam’s beer scene:
“[You’ll] Almost assuredly [drink] bia hoi, on ice. While $0.76 a pint is the overall average price for beer in Vietnam, it's pretty common to find a 12oz glass of this 3% ABV pale lager for as little as $0.20 cents. For the bottled alternative, go with the Bia Hà Nôi.”
Or Saigon Red or 333…
