In Town Posted June 20, 2014 Share Posted June 20, 2014 Chimay or Duvel by preference, but rarely available here. My favourite available beer is Paulaner Salvador. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
krisb Posted June 20, 2014 Author Share Posted June 20, 2014 HB Weizen Beer draft. It's a beer from Munich and every month I buy 5l. Otto sells it at 1200 Baht on Sukhumvit 18. Erdinger is also great and Paulaner too is not bad. HB is really good beer. Had a 6 pack of this one the other week. Expensive at over 500baht a 6 pack here in Australia, but my mate works at the bottle shop and knocked over 50% off for me...nice chap. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

krisb Posted June 20, 2014 Author Share Posted June 20, 2014 Here's a lovely Czech beer to look out for. Kozel, it means goat in Czech, and the dark beer they make is very very drinkable, even if you aren't big on dark beers. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
krisb Posted June 20, 2014 Author Share Posted June 20, 2014 (edited) This Primator hefe weiss beer I am hoping to try one day. Can't get it here in Australia sadly. Won best beer in the world last year. ...hard to imagine how much better than a Weienstephaner or a Franziskaner it could possibly be?

natway09 Posted June 20, 2014 Share Posted June 20, 2014 You talking about beers generically (ie to include lagers as well) or just real beer. Big difference Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ronrat Posted June 20, 2014 Share Posted June 20, 2014 Pretty much any Czech beer. They also set up a lot of the SE Asian beweries like in Lao and it shows. Budvar is a corker. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

hkt83100 Posted June 20, 2014 Share Posted June 20, 2014 index.jpeg Trappist beer? Not really Trappist. But many of the monasteries in Southern Germany have their own brewery. And they know what they are doing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kinmaew Posted June 20, 2014 Share Posted June 20, 2014 Try the German "Aventinus" it has a purple label. Lovely dark beer. But in my opinion cant beat the UK CAMRA porters and stouts at the local festivals in UK 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Grindting Posted June 20, 2014 Share Posted June 20, 2014 (edited) Outside of the UK proper beer (ale) without all that shit gas added, is very hard to find, next to impossible in fact direct from the cask. Couple in the USA, and there is a micro brewery in Hong Kong and one just opened in New Delhi as well where you can.. But no where in the world can you get a better bitter than in the UK My 'usual' when at home: Best bitter in the south: Best bitter in the north Best bottled up and coming brewery by far that I've ever tasted Best 'easily obtainable' beer and to drink wherever possible in Asia (compared with the rest of the muck) Best beer of all time, although I've only had it once as it's almost impossible to find Edited June 20, 2014 by Grindting 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
steve73 Posted June 20, 2014 Share Posted June 20, 2014 I'm surprised that nobody's mentioned Watneys Red Barrel..... I miss a good English Ale, served direct from a wooden barrel - although I've not seen many around during my occasional trips home. Locally I prefer Chang classic - but only in limited doses.

GOLDBUGGY Posted June 20, 2014 Share Posted June 20, 2014 Germans do make great beer. As does Belgium. But as a regular 7-11 Shopper Tiger Beer works best for me. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
morpho Posted June 20, 2014 Share Posted June 20, 2014 Pretty much any Czech beer. They also set up a lot of the SE Asian beweries like in Lao and it shows. Budvar is a corker. Agree. Budvar has been my favorite beer ever since I visited Czech Republic about 15 years ago. It's called Czechvar back in the USA and I used to keep stocked up at home. Still haven't found it anywhere in Thailand but did surprisingly find it in a bar in Angeles City in the Philippines. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

rbt Posted June 20, 2014 Share Posted June 20, 2014 Most of us falangs despise thai beer. I did too until I tried ARCHA. This is the beer that comes close to foreign brands like hieneken. It's not any surprise because it has won a gold medal in australia. Try it, if you haven't already. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
