Kingdom Breweries is a Cambodian craft beer brewery company that was founded in 2009. It is the largest craft brewery in Southeast Asia, serving as a backend production hub for over 30 craft brewers in Thailand, Hong Kong, Singapore and the Philippines.[1] It is located in Phnom Penh, Cambodia, along the banks of the Tonlé Sap River[2] on the north end of the city, and is housed in a renovated factory formerly occupied by Nestlé.
The company is co-owned by Leopard Cambodia Fund, Cambodia's first private equity fund operated by frontier markets private equity firm Leopard Capital,[3] and Charles Street International Holdings.
Kingdom launched its first beer, Clouded Leopard Pilsener, in September 2010,[4] which was awarded a Belgian Monde Selection Gold Quality Award in 2011.[5]

- Kingdom Pilsener – a traditional pilsener (5% alc/vol)

The Taproom
[edit]
The brewery has an onsite bar and lounge known as the Taproom,[6] where visitors have an opportunity to sample the brewery's variety of beers and take guided tours of the facility.[7] Unscheduled tours of the brewery are held Monday through Saturday between 1 p.m. and 5 p.m., and groups of five or more can schedule tours by appointment.
TGIF – Thank God It's Friday
On the first Friday of every month, the Taproom[8] hosts a special "TGIF" event, offering a burger, fries and all-you-can-drink draft beer from Kingdom Breweries and Indochine Beer, another Cambodia-based craft brewery,[9] for $15 (USD). The event lasts from 6 p.m. to 11 p.m.
