It is not clear why the beer shops in Hanoi and in many provinces in the north only use the tumblers made from recycled glass. This kind of glass appeared in the 1960s.

Draught beer was first produced in Vietnam by the French. In the mid-1960s, the Hanoi brewery factory was restored with technical assistance from Czechoslovakia.

Along with this production was the appearance of the special tumblers, used only for draught beer, and made of recycled glass.

Several years ago, the Hanoi Beverage Factory (HABECO) stopped using this kind of tumbler in order to ensure hygiene.But private beer shops in Hanoi still use recycled glasses that have existed for half a century.


Ms. Van Anh, owner of a famous beer shop on Truong Chinh Road, said customers love to drink draught beer in this kind of rough tumbler, not other types of glasses.
