Cerevisia Craft Beer
The Princeps is an Imperial IPA, not a session beer. Someone may have mixed up the tags on the bottle or something. The session, while a bit strong, only clocks in around 5% and not nearly as many IBUs.

I just had a taste of the Princeps and it was outstanding. To my taste, it is lower IBU-wise than their other IPA, but it officially contains 5 more of them babies (55 vs 50).
I found out I have been pronouncing Cerevisia all wrong, but it seems that there are multiple ways to say it. Apparently they are downplaying the 'Cerevisia' while accentuating the 'Craft', so this may be the word our local bartenders are listening for. I should pay more attention to what Scooby says.

The Exchange still has the Red Ale and the IPA on draft.
Chinese House is currently serving the Honey Pale Ale (5.7% ABV and 37 IBU) and the Princeps Imperial IPA (7.4% ABV and 55 IBU), both on draft. The bar is on the ground floor (used to be upstairs) and is 'center style', not up against a wall. Chinese House feels kind of classy if you ignore their $39 audio system from Radio Shack.

Black Bambu (yeah, I know, I had never heard of it either) has the Irish Red and the APA on draft and is very cold. They don't have a bar you can sit at, but the beer is happily delivered to your table by shapely waitresses in close fitting T-shirts. I am thinking that Felgerkarb likes this place.

I stopped in at their 'tasting place' on Street 29 and it's a great little set up. They had four beers on tap (from memory the Princeps, a wheat beer, a rye beer and I think an IPA - can't remember) priced at $3.50 each or $1 a tasting glass. It's only open two nights a week (Thursday and Friday) for the time being, but will expand next month.
Very enjoyable and thoroughly recommended.

These beers sound pretty good, a step forward for drinkers after enduring rubbish like Kingdom all those years ago. Good to see Beerbaron resurface and very apt on this thread.

Should be open seven days a week from as early as next week, or the week after - as soon as they fix the kitchen which will push out a small range of eats.
I was told this by the Cerevisia guys last night. Botanico is proving very popular. There was a good crowd in last night, which dispels the myth that expats in Phnom Penh won't pay more for a premium beer.

Just back into town and went to Botanico for a heapin' helpin' of IPA. I was told 'no have' (with the appropriate hand signal) and that Cerevisia are fresh-out of IPA. Is this true? Does anyone know any establishments in the Penh that still have Cerevisia IPA? Need some IBU's ASAP.
Cerevisia's Mandarin American Pale Ale (5.7% ABV, 36 IBU) is a nice beer.
On a related note, Pasteur Street Brewing Company in beautiful Saigon is completely kicking Cerevisia's ass in the IPA department. Their downtown tasting room currently offer three delicious, hop-heavy IPA's that are expertly served by smiling chicks in tight T-shirts.

Relevant question: are most of the brewmasters barangs?
It would be interesting to see what some in the know Khmers could come up with.

It seems so. I think all of the Cerevisia guys are American, and the Pasteur Street brewmaster is from Colorado.vladimir wrote:Relevant question: are most of the brewmasters barangs?
