They sometimes sell it in Makro. It was definitely there last month. Both the dark and light versions.

Approx 800 to 900 baht per case.

That would be incredibly cheap as it is priced at 43 for the light and 48 for the dark at Big C.

I know that is price per bottle, but if you buy bigger amounts the price normally goes up in Thailand biggrin.png

Ok thanks for that i will look next time I am there. I tried it at the new Asiatique night market in BKK and it was just 40 baht a bottle from a small bar. amazing the difference when you include the island tax.

All i can suggest is Big C . It is where i buy it in Bangkok . Not cheap compared with other beer but worth it if you like a good beer. Never seen it in large bottle either.

Had a similar supply problem here in Phuket. Be careful of the manufacture date, Villa Mart was 12 months old !!, there is some old stock out there. Worth a call to Carlsberg in BKK, talk to Khun Jakob the sales manager tel. 08 6543 3365. or 02 180 2219. I found him very helpful.They are sponsoring the 10th. anniversary party's for Thai Visa. He should be able to give you the name of local distributor for Carlsberg / Lao products in Samui and the stock situation. You could mention that the manager of the Sports Club in Rawai Phuket passed on the info.

Good beer and good service.(now)

Cheers 'n' Beers.

The prices seem right and the lunch menu excellent. Most important is the date. Should be no earlier than 12 Jun 2012. Because of the lack of preservatives and chemicals, unlike Thai brewed beers it's, shelf life is not very long.

I have just returned from Makro and I couldn't find any Beer Lao. Is it in a secret place?

Disappointed!

Also tried Tesco and Big C ...Nada

Refer post #6. See the telephone numbers ? Have you thought to follow the advice. A phone call is not that expensive, one or two baht, compared to a case of beer. huh.png

It's between the wine sales cashier's desk and the beer aisle. About 6 cases of light and 6 cases of dark - next the the rack with the Bacardi Breezers. It is NOT with the beer.

There's two beer Lao.

One light Lager, one dark.

You probably tasted the light one and is missing something.

Just for your info, Khun Jakob is no longer with Carlsberg and their distribution has been taken over by Singapore.

Watch this space, we will hear from Khun Jakob soon...

They had some cases of Beer Lao dark at Makro today.

Damn, a friend was going shopping there this morning too.

Beer Lao is in stock at Tops super Market. Never tried the Dark stuff. Whats it like? Ale, Stout or German style dark beer?

Just bought a case of Lao Dark at Makro, worked out at just under 39 baht/bottle.

Never tried it before but looking forward to a bottle or 2, or 3, or.......
