Beer: Leo. Yes, light and generic, but it's an honest clean brew and won't do you too much harm. Check the date on the bottle/can - much better if <3 weeks old (and stored well, not that there's any way to know till you taste it).

Wine: Currently some boxed Italian red from Tesco. Surprisingly OK. In bottles, generally Chilean red or Oz white.

Spirits: Grouse, Teachers, Ballantine and several other good standard blends are very reasonable in Thailand. For a bit more, JW Black (ignore the snobs - it's a fine drop) or Glenmorangie. Or travel all the time, like I unfortunately have to, and collect so much duty-free stuff you'll spend the rest of your life drinking it.

OP, try Ouzo with ice.

The best drink, ever in any country and any climate.

Cheers......Yeia mas.

My nurse friend, Theodora, used to show up at my apartment after work, about midnight, with a bottle of Ouzo, and that tight white skirt (long ago), and do amazing things to my dangly bits involving the above mentioned libation, ice, and her ever-so-Greek charms.

Ouzo gets my vote.

For a very pleasant thirst quencher try Gilbeys Gin and Schweppes lemon soda. Lemon soda can be found at Makros and is known as "manao soda". Very nice on a hot day (or cold) and I can assure you that you will like it. I have many friends up my way enjoying it. In fact it was a bad move as now the lemon soda can be harder to find.

San Miguel Light - Reasonable quantities do not appear to add to the waistline. Gin & Tonic. Vodka & Cola.

When I do drink Sang Som I ask for a small tumbler, a couple of ice cubes topped up with soda.

I buy Uncle Tom's vodka at BigC for 222 baht. Two fingers in the glass, with ice. Top with Schweppe's Tonic water and leave room for maybe one finger's worth of Chabaa pomelo juice, from Rimping Supermarket in Chiang Mai. That juice is naturally sweet, much better than any grapefruit juice I ever had back home.

come on, there are drinkable red wines around for about 300 baht a bottle.

I enjoy a couple of cheers each day

my local always has it and i drink it plain with ice. delicious

I love a nice big glass of ice cold milk.

I just vomited a little in my mouth

Sang Som/ diet coke, Gin &Tonic, Chang or San Mig light. thumbsup.gif

Bankrupt yourself drinking Champagne - even if not kept well should be vaguely consistent........biggrin.png

It's so hot! Milk was a bad choice

Hoegaarden whitebeer, PALM beer, both in Villa market, foodland.

The rest gives me a headache so i stopped drinking at all here.

Hi, I'd like to drink gin more but it works out too expensive unless drinking it at home, so to be socialable I can tolerate 100 pipers with coke, it's tastes just like getting pished on coke, have tried soda at every ratio from 1 part to 300 parts and still much prefer thinking I'm getting pished on coke......so pipers and coke it is ?

Believe me, you dont want to get it, its vile stuff, so vile in fact even your local motorcycle taxi drivers wont touch the stuff.

Usually see it in Lotus or Big C, never seen anyone actually buy it though.

If you though Archa was bad, you havent tried this crap.

It makes Cheers extra taste like a fine German brew.

It really is that bad, its so bad you have to try just to see for yourself.

I'm with KrisB on this ... I've not seen that beer either.

Sort of like giving a drum set to the nephew of the sister/brother you don't like!
