Beer drinking in Thailand: Does Leo preserve brain-cells better than Chang?

[GammaGlobulin]

Dear Folks,

 

I don't know much about drinking beer in Thailand.

 

However, I am considering getting into the habit of beer drinking, shortly.

 

The Question IS:

 

Will Leo help me to preserve my few remaining brain cells better than Chang beer drinking?

 

Anyone have any experience with this sort of thing?

 

Let me know your thoughts, please.

 

Thank you!

 

Best regards,

 

Gamma

What do you mean few brain cells? You must be drinking a lot of Beer Chang to post B/S  like that.

I have only drunk one bottle of Chang in my entire life.

 

Do you really think that just one bottle of Chang could damage my brain?

 

Leo, on the other hand, helps grow brain cells....IMHO....

You guys might know....

 

The video I posted, HENDRIX-with-Vietnam-footage....

Is just so....filled with stark memories of the days I was growing up...before I hit 20....back in 1969.

Hard to explain the super-deep feelings that well up when watching this video....

And, it's kind of an amazing video....in my very humble opinion.

But you might not know, unless you had been my age...at that time in history...in the USA.

 

Impossible to communicate the feeling....really....

It speaks to buying beer, Leo Beer, in Vietnam....

And, to preserving brain cells, and turning on brain cells by viewing vids of Vietnam....

And the pointlessness of war and drinking beer...

 

If one really wants to lead a healthier life, with a healthier brain.

 

War destroys brain cells, as we all know, just like Chang.

 

Have you ever heard of PTSD from war and Chang?

I have....

 

Anyway:  I was in Vietnam DaNang...in 1971, not to mention Cameron Bay...too....

 

A lot of Singapore beer...too....

Not good for the brain cells, the beer from Singapore....

No wonder....that.....

Singaporeans speak English like they do....

These days.

 

 

Singapore English is a total mess....

And, even they know it.

 

Yet...now....the Singaporean English situation is...completely beyond hope and....entirely....

 

SNAFU!

For people who have mental health challenges. Alcohol will make it worse.

I have graduated from Leo,and Chang to Snowy a fraction more expensive but nice,imo.

[spidermike007]

No. But, it does not deaden the taste buds as much as the lousy Thai beer. 

 

Thai beer is only rivaled by Serbian beer, and the mass produced American beers, in terms of the very low quality. Poor grade of hops, barely, and the production process seems to be entirely lacking in pride. Typical of the big monopolies. Even a large production beer, like Beer Laos blows away any Thai beer, hands down. Thailand desperately needs a vital craft beer movement, and the youth are ready to mount it. If only the dinosaurs would stop protecting their "bankers" and move out of the way. In other words, allow some progress, you mindless simpletons!

A stoll in  Pattaya expat locations would suggest they are both equally damaging

He is the only one replying to you. If you stop, hopefully he will as well.

[crazykopite]

I've been drinking Leo for 20 years and as yet I haven't lost the plot but I only consume around 5x 300 btls per week

I recommend Mekong whiskey, much better. You immediately feel your brain glowing up.it feels like it's growing, too.

The 4% elephant piss is not gonna do that.

That fellow from Scotland. Johnnie Walker,is pretty good  too.

Question indicates possible Alcohol-Related Brain Damage.

 

Long-term alcohol use is much more damaging to the brain than weed.

When I lived "up north" in Thailand, Chang was my beer choice - especially draught Chang that was available in Chiang Mai. Very desirable with a creamy head.

Leo affected my body "inner tubes" so I avoided it. IMO Leo was tasteless gnat's p.ss!

[connda]

Both are tasteless swill that isn't worth drinking.

No, depending on how much alcohol you consume both will fry up your brain cells equally.

[Lacessit]

Both beers are high in carbohydrate. Hence the term "beer gut".

 

The OP would be better off drinking spirits, which have zero carbs, to retain a svelte figure.

 

Given his purported nationality, to make America great again, he should imbibe bourbon.

 I find the taste of Mekong revolting ,  I would rather drink Lao Khao , one gets a whole body glow ,  and strangely , in my experience , no hangover

on a scale of 1-10  

Leo  is a 3-4   Chang  aka Elephant urine  .0003

Actually it's not so much the beer as the snacks that often come with it. Drinking arouses the appetite (to be ahead of the funny guys: yes, not only for food). I can tell from own experience: love to drink beer but don't snack, constant weight (BMI<25) for over 10 years.

And as for the spirits: 1 gram of alcohol contains 7 calories. There are 65 cal in a standard glass of whiskey, about 83 in a small bottle of beer. Only alcohol free spirits have zero carbs. Cheers!

With respect, Mekhong whiskey is not whiskey - it is RUM! So are Hong Tong and Sam Song - also distilled from molasses. I believe Sam Song actually states rum on the label.

 

It (Mekhong) is distilled from molasses (sugar) which makes it rum. To be honest, on the bottle there is no mention of either two - just "distilled spirit". reference- 

" haven’t found any evidence online that the company behind this “rum” Bangyikan Distillery have every marketed this as whisky or rum.  I’ll try and sort out of the confusion,  Mekhong is made from molasses (approx. 95%) and 5% rice.  Which makes it almost a rum.  Add into this conundrum the secret recipe of natural spices which is added to the blend bottle it at 35% and we have a spiced rum."
