deejah Posted April 10, 2012 Share Posted April 10, 2012 why do so few local beers have THAT flavor? not even Heineken has it is it hops? or a combo? leo seems to have that rare delightful BEER flavor what comprises a commercial beer recepie i understand few commercial beers steer far from it has the recipe or ingredients changed in the last few years any recommendations for other beers?

toybits Posted April 10, 2012 Share Posted April 10, 2012 (edited) Indeed. I'll drink to that! Recommendations for other beers? Beer Lao is a beer I will take any day. Same as Angkor (dark beer) stout. Unfortunately, I have to cross the border for those beers. Edited April 10, 2012 by toybits Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
h90 Posted April 10, 2012 Share Posted April 10, 2012 Well not always: Sometimes Leo is good, sometimes it is bad. Seems they can't control the quality. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ericg Posted April 10, 2012 Share Posted April 10, 2012 I personally preffer Heinekeen over Leo, usually feall much better the next day. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Penkoprod Posted April 10, 2012 Share Posted April 10, 2012 I cant wait for Tsingtao Beer to open up their Bangkok factory in 2013. Not a great pilsner/lager fan, but Tsingtao Beer slides down very nicely indeed, IMO Dark Beer Lao runs it a close second, though Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Seems they can't control the quality. along with THAT flavor it's a bit on the sweet side You meant that fruit-flavor? It doesn't have that all the time. Only sometimes. I think it isn't intended. I regret that I wrote "Sometimes Leo is good". I meant: Sometimes it isn't as bad as the others. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
longstebe Posted April 10, 2012 Share Posted April 10, 2012 It's me fave over here. Beer Lao when I cross over. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
deejah Posted April 10, 2012 Author Share Posted April 10, 2012 it is certainly a fav with the thais and suitably priced all i can say is the after taste of a REAL beer flavor it is like a gift that keeps on giving i dont get it from the other local beers i suspect it is hops (or malt, <deleted> do i know) a home brewer might know Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dekchaimong Posted April 10, 2012 Share Posted April 10, 2012 (edited) Sorry but Leo is like 2% alcohol and 98% cat urine! Stick with good old poison Chang! 6.8%..............merry merry, you can't get pissed on Leo you will chuck your guts first Edited April 10, 2012 by Dekchaimong Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have no comment re the cat pee though. I don't understand why anyone would want to drink it, it is 1/3rd of the strength of Chang, it costs considerably more and it tastes disgusting - a bit like the Heineken here - cat piss! The locals around my place get out of their merry little skulls on 20 Bahts worth of Lao Kao - why would they ever consider spending almost 50 Baht on that rubbish! - Two bottles is almost a days wages, and they could still manage to drive home.
