Popular Post trainman34014 Posted October 15, 2021 Popular Post Share Posted October 15, 2021 Remember the days when you walked into a Pub early in the evening and the Barmaid looked as Ugly as Sin; but after Ten Pints she looked like Miss World ? That's how i feel about Thai Beer; when i first came here i thought all Thai Beers were as bad as Khlong Water; but after a few months of drinking it it seemed to 'Improve'. However; my first choice these days is Beer Lao. 2 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Chang available in the UK is reduced strength so it fits with a lower duty bracket - its not the same. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I had an awakening!!! It was delicious. Singh for the bar but definitely Kopper at home. What does it taste like? I have always been out off craft beers cos I am afraid it'll taste like flowers. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Used to drink Singha when I first came to Thailand. For a while Red Horse was my favourite, but, for some reason, San Miguel Thailand stopped brewing it. Nowadays it's usually San Miguel, or Heineken when out for a beer. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bunnydrops Posted October 15, 2021 Share Posted October 15, 2021 Rogue Brewery Fat Tire Ale. Its what I drink back in the States. I found it served in a Hotel near the airport a couple of years back.

Bigz Posted October 16, 2021 Share Posted October 16, 2021 Used to drink Leo. Recently found out about the whopping 320 kcal/bottle in Leo so I switched to Singha. Can't stand the flavour of Chang so that's not an option for me. 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. ..and as draught Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
patongphil Posted October 16, 2021 Share Posted October 16, 2021 I cant believe that there are so many votes for Singha. During my travels between Phuket and Isaan I would say Singha drinkers are about as common as rocking horse <deleted>. I personally only know one!!! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jaxxper Posted October 16, 2021 Share Posted October 16, 2021 Listed my favourite, but could drink any of those listed, even the San Miguel light if options were that limited. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LawrenceN Posted October 16, 2021 Share Posted October 16, 2021 Tapper. 6.5% alcohol in a 500ml can. Not bad tasting, either. Available in 12-packs at Makro. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bangkok Barry Posted October 16, 2021 Share Posted October 16, 2021 14 hours ago, greeneking said: Beer Laos IPA. For a while could even get it in 7-11. It said Limited Edition on the bottle, and now sadly missed. The closest I've found to an English-style beer (maybe not too far removed from Greene King? ???? ). Black Dragon tastes like a watered-down version but is a half-decent substitute. But my favourites are Tapper, Cheers Extra and Leo 8, not in any particular order. They're all in the fridge and I decide on the day which to have. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sirineou Posted October 16, 2021 Share Posted October 16, 2021 I am not as selective as many of you seem to be. call it beer and I will drink it. I don't alway drink beer Bu when I do I drink Singha???? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Caldera Posted October 16, 2021 Share Posted October 16, 2021 My go-to Thai beer is Singha, so that's what I've selected, but it's far from being my favorite beer overall. It's drinkable and readily available. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
shackleton Posted October 16, 2021 Share Posted October 16, 2021 Chang beer when cold best value Used to drink Singha but they cut the size of the bottles and increased the price Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HAPPYNUFF Posted October 16, 2021 Share Posted October 16, 2021 Lao beer, of any type is my favourite, but at over 1200 baht a carton, only buy it on birthday/christmas, when Im feeling rich. The new Chang Cold Brew is nearly equal to Lao, and thats what I drink now., at 35 baht a carton more than regular Chang, I can afford it. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HAPPYNUFF Posted October 16, 2021 Share Posted October 16, 2021 Second entry, the best beer I have tasted was the one someone else paid for. Hauf Brau House,(or similar spelling) on Beach Rd, Pattaya has draught wheat beer, excellent when Im visiting Sin City. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

me4175 Posted October 16, 2021 Share Posted October 16, 2021 I like Leo as a staple when other beers are not available. But from what's available at a 7-Eleven, I really like Huntsman Blonde (one of the cheapest also when buying bulk in Makro), and Chang 25. I also enjoy a Chang Espresso sometimes.

alien365 Posted October 16, 2021 Share Posted October 16, 2021 (edited) I chose Tiger from the list as my daily drinking beer but there are many nicer ones out there. Last week in Gourmet Market I found the beers called Khun Phaen and Chao Sungthong. The beers actually had some nice flavours to them. I'm also glad I learnt more about Thai literature from an alcoholic drink (as we are not even allowed to post a picture). If it was orange juice I wouldn't have bothered to find out who the characters were. Edited October 16, 2021 by alien365 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
