bartender100 Posted October 31, 2019 Share Posted October 31, 2019 Serious question and if you don't drink it no need to reply. Been out the country for six months, and now back I have not had one SML that tastes like it did before, anyone else noticed this? I had six years drinking it up till a couple of years ago They all seem to have a fusty taste, whereas before nice crisp clean taste, i can't explain it Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nakluapattaya Posted October 31, 2019 Share Posted October 31, 2019 My last San Mig L was in June earlyer this year. Going back to LOS 15nov. One of my favorite LOS beers. I will check and see if i can confirm this. Singh Light is a good alternative tho always clean and crisp and good with some ice. Maybe slightly better imo. But dont touch MyBeer (singh) its awefull. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My friends who drank Singha Lite have moved to My Beer with no issues....... 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I enjoyed Singha Light but My Beer tastes totally different. https://www.ratebeer.com/beer/singha-my-beer/711627/ 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
alant Posted November 1, 2019 Share Posted November 1, 2019 Draft much more fruity I think, bottle taste seems to be more inconsistent these days. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lacessit Posted November 1, 2019 Share Posted November 1, 2019 (edited) Beer has a very short shelf life, three months at most. It gets worse if it is stored at room temperature for any time, particularly in the tropics. That was what I was told by the Chief Chemist of Carlton and United Breweries at their Abbotsford plant. You may have got a dud batch. I recommend you keep drinking from different shops until you get the original taste back. The other possibility is the bean counters have cut costs by changing the raw materials and/or production process, and are hoping no-one notices before they are promoted.

ivan96822 Posted November 2, 2019 Share Posted November 2, 2019 Chang beer is my favorite LOS beer. I had lots of San Miguel Pilsen on an extended stay in Boracay, Philippines... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ivan96822 Posted November 2, 2019 Share Posted November 2, 2019 For 45 days straight, I would have SM Pilsen as my daytime beer, but at night... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ivan96822 Posted November 2, 2019 Share Posted November 2, 2019 At night, it was Red Horse beer that I enjoyed most. It is the best beer in SE Asia. Better than Chang...Delicious beer... 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A friend of mine from Australia,he could finish several buckets of ice every evening. When he told me he had to pee a lot late at night and even after going to bed, I asked him, don't you know why? He realized what I meant, and stopped drinking beer with ice for a while. But, then he went back to ice again. Go figure. ???? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
