Popular Post 2009 Posted October 14, 2021 Popular Post Share Posted October 14, 2021 (edited) Just wondering what your favourite beer is? Most farang I know drink Chang. Most Thai drink Leo. I know some who stick to Heineken or SanMig Light. I have met a few loyal Archa drinkers out in Isaan. I only included the most common beers found in the bars here (or mom n pop shops for our rural members). I know in the stores you can buy a wider range, including craft beers nowadays, but I decided to stick with the typical beers served in bars usually.

As far as I can tell those 3 beers all taste exactly the same. I used to drink Chang but that beer gave be blackouts ..... a period of time where I did stuff but had absolutely no recollection of doing so the next day. A couple of my pals claimed similar effects, so we all started avoiding Chang. 2 2 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

In the good old days used to be available everywhere/anywhere - even delivered. The Thai Beer Mafias put a clamp on that, as they found that the popular lager was cutting into their competitive edge. 5 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's been 48 baht at our local tops for months, the cans are still 68 baht. Not short dated either, 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Are you sure? I also like beer lao, especially the dark one. But it seems that is almost always more expensive than other beers. And it seems many people are not willing to pay more for better tasting beer. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post Chad3000 Posted October 15, 2021 Popular Post Share Posted October 15, 2021 (edited) Does anyone else get absolutely nasty hangovers from Heineken? As bad as Chang. Especially on tap. Honestly, I don't drink beer anymore. Few times a year. Scotch and bourbon don't make me fat. Edited October 15, 2021 by Chad3000 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Price kept going up. When lived in Udon Thani, mere 25 baht in Laos. Here now, I think 65 ish, so a bit silly. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
