Its illegal to display a beer name, logo or trademark on social media so you may want to be careful. I was called out on this as a Cafe owner for the exact same thing due to a ruling from 2008.

 

Like every other law in Thailand, it is ignored and next-to-never enforced. Just another pointless law that allows corruption to exist within Thailand's largest criminal organisation should they choose to 'crack down' on anyone.

A million percent Federbrau is the best.

Tapper 6.5 is quite good. But only seems to be sold in shops, not seen it in bars.

Of the bottled, cheap Thai-brewed lagers, it has to be Federbrau for me. Unfortunately, hardly any bars seem to stock it. 

 It's German?

Chang is Danish beer, Carlsberg Elephant beer, Carabao is German beer produced in Thailand. 

 

Singha is the only Thai beer made by a Thai who studied the breewing process in Germany and Denmark. 

 

Meanwhile, Boonrawd toured Germany and Denmark to study the art of making beer. His dream became a reality when Boon Rawd Brewery was established on 4 August 1933, when he was 60 years old.

I'm exploring local beers in Thailand. Which brand is your favorite: Leo, Chang, Singha, or another? What do you recommend?

 

If available Draught Chang, otherwise bottled Chang or Beer Lao (light and dark). Singha and Leo upset my gut so I avoid like the plague!

I'm just having a couple of bottles of beer Lao IPA which I am finding very agreeable. 70 baht per bottle at my local expat shop (Lamai, Koh Samui).

 

I wish more bars/shops would stock the beer Lao range. I personally think it puts Thai beer to shame. 

 

I'm a Singha drinker when out and about.

Depends on your circumstance. I had a local report us about our Cafe. I was only warned and asked to remove the pics. Granted im small fish in a big sea but I'm just passing on valid information. Do with it what you will.

Thai beer is horrible.

I can only drink Chang, on ice. Lots of ice .

I actually vomited last time I had a sip of Singha

 What's wrong with Carabao beers, Cheers Extra, Tapper or Red Horse? Chang at 4.8% is not worth buying

I go with Chang, as I already posted in the numerous thread we already have asking the exact same thing.

 

If we go outside the local beers in Thailand, it would be Wiehenstephaner, Paulaner and Erdinger

I agree.  And I hate having a 'changover' after just 3 bottles. 

 

Prefer Carabao dark to the lager. Is Cheers Extra the one with a red label?  Can't find that in Korat,  drank that alot when I lived in Chiang Mai. 

 

Red Horse (Philippine beer) is good too.  Tawang Dang IPA is very tasty and only 53baht a can at local Lotus'sss. 

 

I'm still trying to find a decent dark Jamaican rum.  Capt Morgan too sweet.  Sangsom is rather tasteless.

Which law about display logos and beer ads on the forum. The forum have to follow the country where they are registered and where they rent the domain?

It's locally brewed under license. It's a German recipe so tastes better than the Thai p***. At least to me anyway.

Who remember the "Black Cat" ? that was the best [for Thailand]

so far - Asahi and rarely Heineken 

I actually had to look it up... 

 

Product of Chit Beer.  I'd buy it just for the label!
