Bia hoi, or fresh 'draft' beer, is a staple on Bui Vien Street, contributing to its lively atmosphere. This light, refreshing beer is brewed daily and distributed to local establishments, ensuring its freshness. Served in small glasses, bia hoi is typically enjoyed on the plastic stools that line the bustling sidewalks, providing an authentic local experience. It's an inexpensive way to delight in the Vietnamese culture and hospitality, often paired with shared plates of peanuts, grilled meats, and spring rolls, making for a social and leisurely dining experience.
