## About

In 2013 Malai Kitchen (a modern Thai-Vietnamese restaurant in the DFW area) began brewing a small portfolio of beers designed to pair with Southeast Asian flavors. It all started after chef/owners Braden and Yasmin Wages discovered Bia Hoi (a light Vietnamese rice lager) on a trip to Hanoi, Vietnam. They enjoyed the beer so much that they were compelled to share the refreshing brew with their guests. When they couldn’t find a domestic brewery to brew it for them, they decided to give it a try themselves and acquired a brewpub license. The rest is history...

Malai currently produces six Asian-style beers including one seasonal rotator.
