Beerlao Premium Lager Beer

Beerlao is the flagship national beer of Laos, originally launched in 1973. It is produced by the Lao Brewery Company (LBC) based in Vientiane. The beer is iconic for its unique use of local polished jasmine rice, which is blended with malted barley from France and hops and yeast from Germany to create its signature smooth and refreshing flavor profile. It has become a symbol of Lao culture and is widely exported globally.

The brand's ownership has evolved through various joint ventures involving the Lao government. Since the mid-2000s, the brewery has been a prominent partnership between the government and international brewing giants. Today, the brand is under the joint ownership of the Lao government and the Danish multinational Carlsberg Group, which provides technical expertise and global distribution networks for the brand.
