When it comes to drinking, many countries in Asia have the custom of drinking. Whether it is Chinese liquor, Korean shochu or Japanese sake, wine has formed a unique wine culture for Asians. But which country is the most drinkable in Asia, can you guess? The international authoritative medical journal "The Lancet" answers - this is Vietnam.

Vietnam, a small country in Southeast Asia, defeated Chinese, Koreans, and Japanese in terms of per capita drinking. He dominated the Asian jars. According to the data released by “The Lancet”, Vietnamese men drink an average of 5 standard alcoholic beverages a day (a standard amount of about 10 grams of pure alcohol, about equal to a bottle of beer), which is the highest in Asia.

How much do Vietnamese men love to drink? According to incomplete statistics from relevant Vietnamese authorities, 10% of the population in Vietnam has alcohol problems. But the peculiarity is that Vietnamese women drink less than one standard alcoholic drink a day, and are among the lowest in the world.

According to the Vietnam Alcoholic Beverage Association, Vietnamese drink more than 4 billion liters in 2017, an increase of 6% over 2016. Vietnam spends about $3.4 billion a year on beer consumption. Unfortunately, nearly 90% of its consumption goes to foreign winemakers' bags, and domestic beer accounts for only 10%.

At the "Oktoberfest" held in Hanoi, Vietnam, the wines are all free and welcome to drink. At the Oktoberfest, their local “bia hoi” beer is available. This is a local cheap draft beer that can be found on the streets of major cities in Vietnam.

Drinking beer has also become a relaxing way for Vietnamese people to gather and relax. It’s no wonder that the Vietnamese who drink beer as water have the title of the most drinking in Asia.
So friends,when you travel to Vietnam,don't drink with Vietnamese people. It's not that you don't drink enough, but it's because their sake is too special! For your health considerations, we will not fight with them this time.
