I prefer Chang Draught, I ticked "Draught" as I'm not too keen on plain Chang. One noticeable absentee from the list is Archa - I know a number of members that prefer that.

[geriatrickid]

Singha and whatever beer the Australians are drinking downstairs. (Ever notice that Aussies are the most likely to take pity on someone and shove a beer in his hands as soon as they see a forlorn sad gaze at a cold one? )

[britmaveric]

Beer lao - however notice singha is missing as well . Pretty Shi*te poll.

[Ithailian]

Beer Lao for me too!

[craighj]

San Miguel light or beer Loa for me, however I would love to get my hands on some good Aussie beer!

Ok guys, sorry. It's the first time I've done a poll.

I plum forgot Singha, can it be added?

Also, I wanted the choice of beer and whether draught or bottle/can to be separate.

Seeing your poll you know zero about beer:

First Heineken ain't no beer (only an excellent marketing scam), secondly real beers such as Duvel are missing from your list, in fact it's a very very poor list

Oh jstumbo, the hefe weizen looks good

Ice cold san mig light with lime here as well. Villa market sells coopers but your proboably talking VB right?

p.s San Mig Light is apparently one of the top 3 biggest sellers now mainly because women drink it as well. Surprised it wasn't in the Poll

I think Heineken is the same as Budweiser and Fosters. Crap beer that just has a name and is sold to those that have no idea what a good beer tastes like.

[mickmac]

I always ask for Kloster, preferably in the large bottles, not that its stocked in many places now.

[Samuian]

You forgot "Kölsch"

On Purpose!

It's a semi-fizzy drink considered only by the citizens of Cologne "Beer", same with this stuff from neigboring Duesseldorf, called "Alt"!

Note:

"The Bavarian Reinheitsgebot of 1516, was drawn up to ensure the production of decent-quality beer; however, this decree did not affect brewers of the Rhineland. As such, the brewing traditions in this region developed slightly differently. For example, brewing during the summer was illegal in Bavaria, but the cooler climate of the Rhineland allowed Alt brewers to brew all year long and to experiment with storing fermented beer in cool caves and cellars.

The name "altbier" first appeared in the 1800s to differentiate the beers of Düsseldorf from the new pale lager that was gaining a hold on Germany. [2] Brewers in Düsseldorf used the pale malts that were used for the modern pale lagers, but retained the old ("alt") method of using warm fermenting yeasts.[3]

The first brewery to use the name Alt was Schumacher which opened in 1838.[4] The founder, Mathias Schumacher, allowed the pale ale to mature in cool conditions in wooden casks for longer than normal, and laid the foundation for the modern alt beer - an amber coloured, lagered ale.[5] The result is a pale ale that has some of the lean, dryness of a lager, with the fruity notes of an ale."

@jstumbo:

try the ORIGINAL Budweiser from Budvar! Not the Fake from Anhaeuser & Busch!

That is one of the biggest contradiction in terms I've ever seen. I've lost count of the number of arguments I've had with Ozzie's who think they make "beer". They don't. One chap even told me couldn't ever live abroad as nowhere serves VB. That's VB!

Coopers is the nectar of the gods, the gods being Croweaters.

It's the only truly Aussie brewery in Oz so please support it

To quote Homer Simpson "Killkenny achhghhgh!" - and Coopers.

+2 When in LOS

But I drink Kirin "Ichiban shibori" whilst here in Japan.

[mrt273nva]

i voted for all of them except chang.

[kmart]

I love normal Beer Lao. A really good canned beer. When I'm in Songkhla I always drink "Asahi Dry" in bottles though. Yum.

[Pink Mist]

yorkies & scotties drink archa is cheap

[mrtoad]

I have to admit to not being to keen on the local stuff. If I'm stayin in the local area, I'll probably drink San Mig or Leo as the options are limited. If I'm in town then it'll be Strongbow Cider, Guinness or Stella.

Must be time for a beer now as well.

[astral]

Never drink the stuff.

I prefer hard liquor.
