Hello guys,

 

Does anybody know where I can buy alcohol free beer and does it exist?

 

All the best,

Bangkok I guess.

Available in Thailand allegedly not sure whether the alcohol free one is sold here though.  

https://www.captainbarrel.com/

Just bought some in Foodland. Two types available in cans, one is called OeTtinger, 99 baht for 0.5 l. The other one is Clausthaler, 84 baht for 0.33 l.

 

Looks like beer, smells like beer, feels like beer..............but does NOT taste like beer ha ha ha!

Maxvalue have a few alcohol free beers... Erdinger in the blue bottle is  alcohol frei" but never tried it lol

The price of alcohol free beer is bloody rude considering that it doesn't ( I'm guessing ) get an alcohol tax.

It probably falls under the excessive  "luxury import goods tax" that they put on everything from  chocolate to cheese.... 

 

(it is still ~40thb a bottle cheaper than the one with the alcohol in it)

And the government is trying to encourage abstinence. Should be widely offered and cheap.

Water is!

I bought some non-alco root beer from Macro     

singha water ! 

Any Rimping in Chiang Mai, several choices. Sold throughout the day. While the taste is average, it's a poor substitute for getting merry - if that's your main aim.

One can usually buy Clausthala at Tesco but is extremely expensive. Why I have no logical idea.   There are now 2 other brands available, check around, you will find it also at Tops.

Clausthaler

1.  
2.  

The story of Clausthaler is the story of inspiration, innovation and determination… all resulting in the worlds' first great tasting non-alcoholic beer.

The reason that a good alcohol free beer (if there is one) is expensive is that it is  brewed just like any 

beer & then has a process similar to pasteurization to burn off the alcohol.

I still save them the trouble

The entire concept of non-alcoholic beer is bloody rude

In Foodland Pat Pong the cans are located in the alcohol alcove which is fenced off outside booze selling hours. And  'non alcohol beer' may still contain up to 0.5% alcohol.

You sir, must be devoid of culture... Or have yet to experience good beer 

 

There  is not much finer  than a quality Belgian or German beer

Why on earth would anyone want to drink alcohol free beer when you can have a chang?

Does anyone know where I can find a non-sexual girl--one with no mouth, no mammaries, no vagina and no anus; but she'll need hands and feet to go fetch me alcoholic beer.

Have to admit, I agree other things taste better. Although, on a hot day outdoors, a good cold beer is hard to beat.

Yes, agreed on that, or after a long hard day at work. I't has to be freezing cold though, wait for it to get warm and try it.

Good beer can be picked up and drank at any temperature without making a winceing face..... I know you would struggle to do that with a chang but try it with a quality German weissbier

Fare enough, I shall give it a shot. However I'm not the only one that thinks this way. Watch this video at 03:20 in, Jim Jefferies explains it perfectly.

Don't like warm beer; ever since I first had it in London in the sixties.
