nima Posted December 20, 2012 Share Posted December 20, 2012 Beer is both enjoyable and healthy, since I don't drink alcohol I need only non-alcoholic beers. I used to drink Bavaria brewery back home which was 100% alcohol free and I loved it. Does anyone know a place in BKK that sells this type of beer to buy a few boxes?

HalibutJones Posted December 21, 2012 Share Posted December 21, 2012 Don't know about boxes, but Villa carry a very limited supply, can't remember the name. Can remember the price, tho'. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rgs2001uk Posted December 21, 2012 Share Posted December 21, 2012 Various supermarkets carry it, have seen it in Big C and Tesco, helps if you can read German because its German alcohol free beer I have seen. TIT, they tax the shit out of it, it was about 140 baht for a small bottle, same price as alcoholic German beer. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

nima Posted December 21, 2012 Author Share Posted December 21, 2012 Thanks. Anyone knows how to say non-alcoholic beer in Thai? Various supermarkets carry it, have seen it in Big C and Tesco, helps if you can read German because its German alcohol free beer I have seen. TIT, they tax the shit out of it, it was about 140 baht for a small bottle, same price as alcoholic German beer. I'll look into it this time I go to a supermarket. I can read a little German, but I think that won't be necessary as they put 0.0% in front. No wonder why it's pricey, I hope I can find local beers as I will purchase regularly.

TallGuyJohninBKK Posted December 23, 2012 Share Posted December 23, 2012 I've never heard of or seen a local THAI beer with no alcohol.. Probably kind of counterproductive from the typical Thai drinker's point of view. However, as posted above, there are various imported non alcoholic beers available in the farang supermarkets around Bangkok, at least. Even the German ones clearly have labels indicating no alcohol. The markets in Central World and Central Chidlom both carry non-alcoholic beers as well... usually bottles. And the price seems to me to be 100+ baht per bottle.

jbrain Posted December 23, 2012 Share Posted December 23, 2012 (edited) Seen 2 or 3 different alcohol free beer at Big C extra, no idea about origin, but at 50-60 Baht a 330 cc bottle if i recall correctly. As you will have noticed already, it wasn't a good idea to include " alcohol-free " in the topic title. TV members not interested in that subject.

nima Posted December 29, 2012 Author Share Posted December 29, 2012 I don't know. Are there places where you can shower without water? Wait, don't answer that. Beer is brewed from malted barley, hops, yeast and water. You don't think that it's made from alcohol, right? It is mixed with it after its original process is done.

Somebody should tell that to the brewers in Saudi, heres me for all those years thought it was made with 8 cases of Buckler, 10kgs of sugar, some yeast, and about 40 liters of water, throw the lot into a 100 litre plastic bin, and wait for about 2 weeks. After its finished brewing bottle and leave for about 1 month before drinking. Never saw any alcohol added at any time, its the mixture that turns it into alcohol, water sugar and yeast, same as making a mash for distilling, as in sid.

tombkk Posted January 2, 2013 Share Posted January 2, 2013 Alcohol free beer?! But surely that defies the whole point? Mind. Blown. No. The point of drinking beer is the taste (at least for me). Sometimes I enjoy the alcohol, sometimes I don't. Sometimes I simply have to drive but would still like to have a beer with my friends. I absolutely like the invention of alcohol-free beer. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tombkk Posted January 2, 2013 Share Posted January 2, 2013 Does anyone here know about how the calories in these non-alcoholic beers compare with the regular beers? Unrelated, I'd think. But I once had a "diet beer", which was supposed to have less calories. The definition of "light beer" is not clear: Some brewers use that term for beer with less alcohol, others use it for beer with lower calories. Some even try to tell us that it tastes good. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TallGuyJohninBKK Posted January 7, 2013 Share Posted January 7, 2013 Out and around today, I noticed 330 ml bottles of the German beer Krombacher in their alcohol free variety... about 85 baht at Big C Radjadamri and 82 baht at Foodland. Never tried it, so don't have an opinion one way or another. But as for the comment above about why drink beer if not for the alcohol, I don't mind the alcohol, but really, if I want to drink a Guinness, I'm doing it for the taste... not to get buzzed. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ulysses G. Posted January 7, 2013 Share Posted January 7, 2013 Alcohol free beer?! But surely that defies the whole point? Mind. Blown. I agree. I enjoy a beer or two from time to time, but give me orange juice if only drinking for the taste. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
