If you take a swaddled pig, you clean it up and you dress it and fine garments it's still a swaddle pig, even if you charge an extra 10 baht for it.

Ooops 330ml @ 4.9% is 16.17 ml of alcohol, and @ 4.8 is 15.84.  So difference is 0.33.

So do you calculate that amount of alc as a % of the total 330, or as the difference in alc content. Both ways can be correct. Yes there is 2.04% less alcohol but not in the whole 330 ml can.

 

Not everyone can follow the logic of mathematics. You can do it!

Mr. MAGA, one example, specially for you:

If a beer has 5 volume%, and another beer has 10 volume%, so that beer has 100% more alcohol. And this is what I spoke before about 4,9% and 4,8%. The 4,8% beer has 2% less alcohol.

Understand it now, if not, go back to school.

 

Oh my Buddha....

Twenty odd years ago not many had the Chang beer, "Castleburg" predominated. When I wanted a Chang it would usually come from the bottom of the fridge and often frozen. I would just pour the beer into the glass and leave the chunk of ice in the bottle.

Wonder what the ABV would be.

A very high alcohol content, as only the water freezes to ice, but not the alcohol.

 

That reminds me of German Eisbock. The whole barrel is frozen and only the inner, unfrozen core is tapped. What comes out of it has about 30% alcohol by volume.

either you need to go to specsavers or Chang needs to update their website.

 

 

 

Taken today in 7/11 not years ago or outdated web info. Chang Classic is 4.8% and has been for years, Chang Cold Brew is now 4.6%

Thanks for the update.

Chang should rectify their website.

If it had been a question there would have been a question mark.

Merely an observation as there is no meaningful answer.

I didn't answer you, you don't need an answer, but I gave the general public a generally valid and scientifically confirmed explanation. Just read over my comment and all will be right with the world for sandyf!

89 Baht a can at seven. 

At Lotus also. Got four yesterday, and it was 13.59. A busy cashier told me to go to the next but one, who didn't look busy, but the moron in that queue was paying by phone. Was 14.01 before my turn, so could not buy. Ah well, next time!

How's the Carabao beer, particularly the Dunkel?  Haven't tried it yet.

 

Carabao says that they are following Tawandang's standards for brewing German beer.  The Tawandang Weisen tastes similar to Hoegaarden and their IPA seemed like a more flavourful, decent alternative to the regular Thai stuff. What's your take on these ones?

 

For me, Tawandang IPA is very tasty. Strong hoppy taste.

54 baht for a small can is OK but only 60 baht for a large can (if I can find them) is even better.

I also like the Dunkel but nowhere near as strong a taste as an IPA.

Both are better than the lagers.

I wouldn't drink an unpasturized beer in Thailand.  It doesn't sound safe.  Unpasteurized beers need to be kept refrigerated or they spoil.  I doubt Thais will understand the difference between this and an ordinary beer, and many shops will store it at room temperature or hotter.

Still can't get the IPA here out in the sticks for some reason. I'd like to compare it to the Snowy and Beerlao IPA's which are both nice.

It is interesting how the shelves of 7/11 fill up with variants of Chang and Leo that Carabao/ Tawandaeng are kept out and the brief availability of Beer Laos was brought to an end.
