Bintang Beer in Bangkok ?

[turgid]

I want to get a couple of bottles of Bintang beer for a cheap "in joke" Christmas present. The T Shirts are on every market stall but I cant find the beer.

Anyone know where it might be sold in Bangkok? I've seen Thai beers in Indonesia so i assumed there would be a reciprocal arrangement but I cant find it here.

Nope,no Bintang in Thailand!You know that Bintang means Star in Bahasa and the Red Star is the logo of the Heineken Brewery,right?
Why would Heineken compete against themselves?It's only produced in Indonesia as it was the Dutch East Indies,a colony beforehand.

I know its not made here but I though there might be a beer pub or supermarket that offered it as a guest or imported beer.

Heineken are quite happy with their tiger beer sales in Thailand so they do compete with themselves.

The only places I know that stock imported beers are Friendship Supermarket in Pattaya and any Foodland Supermarket in BKK....can't say I've seen Bintang, but worth a look.
