Mate said its popular in Phom Phen also.. His words were that no wonder thai brewers aren't letting it in as it would end sales of most Thai brands overnight.. Dirt cheap and award winning taste.

Personally among the beers here I find none are too great.. Heineken is chem city.. Singha and Chang are ok for a couple or with some ice with a meal.. But drink either all night and aftertaste gets a bit nasty (chang especially).. Tiger probably ranks about tops but again has a less crisp clean taste of a proper Pilsner. Leo is probably my least favorite.

San Mig cans are pretty good.. Esp the San Mig light low calories one IMHO.. Crisp and clean but not sold in bars much.

in that newsletter, i forget the name, that came out the other day
the new report from PP, they mentioned beer lao
I have never tried it, but i was pleasantly suprised by Angkor beer in cambo, i thought that was fantastic
