Where can I drink draught Beerlao in Vientiane?

Accepted answer

Besides the two large places that jpatokal and uncovery found, both of which feel designed to attract foreigners, I finally found a small cheap restaurant that has Beerlao on tap tonight.

In fact I'd passed it many times without noticing their draught beer or thinking it was Tiger (a Singapore beer) for some reason.

The restaurant is called Kataenoy (ກະແຕນ້ອຍ) and is on Chao Annou Road between Quai Fa Ngum and Rue Setthathilath (around the corner from Bor Pennyang). It is the rightmost of three similar lively looking restaurants.

Food is priced from 15,000 kip (1.90 USD, 1.40 EUR). The beer on tap (ເບຍສົດ) comes in three sizes:

  • Glass: 7,000 kip (0.90 USD, 0.65 EUR)
  • Pitcher/Jug: 15,000 (1.90 USD, 1.40 EUR)
  • A large dispenser that includes a separate section full of ice to keep it cold for 45,000 kip a (5.70 USD, 4.20 EUR)

Ask a local for biá sot ("fresh beer") -- and beware of ice cubes. But these two backpacker stalwarts should have Beerlao on tap:

  • Khop Chai Deu, Setthathirat Rd (next to the fountain square)
  • Bor Pen Nyang, Fa Ngum Rd (aka the waterfront)

There is a place called Khop Chai Deu which reportedly sells Beer Lao on tap (more reports about it here).
