johng Posted March 19, 2015 Share Posted March 19, 2015 Its nice but too expensive 56 baht for a small bottle box of dark at Makro last time I looked was about 1000 baht 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Isan Farang Posted March 19, 2015 Share Posted March 19, 2015 56 baht per bottle Thanks for the info, I purchase by the box (24) from Makro for 1.145 Baht per box. At times its a hit or miss as its a fast mover. I will check my local SE store as its handy for a back up. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

infinity11 Posted March 19, 2015 Author Share Posted March 19, 2015 (edited) SE store? How many in a box/carton 24? 1000 baht divided by 24 is about 42 baht too dangerous to have more than one or two lying around the house however Edited March 19, 2015 by infinity11 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
johng Posted March 19, 2015 Share Posted March 19, 2015 SE I suppose = Seven Eleven 24 small bottles in a box from Makro. when I say too expensive I mean if I buy a box I just can't help dinking the bloody stuff so it gets expensive. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

balo Posted March 19, 2015 Share Posted March 19, 2015 I agree this is a good beer as an alternative to the expensive imported draft beer that I love so much . I am drinking my favourite right now, Well's waggle dance. It's 148 baht per bottle so I don't drink much for that price. So will visit Makro soon and look for the 24 pack.

Popular Post Laughing Gravy Posted March 20, 2015 Popular Post Share Posted March 20, 2015 It is good news as I was told that the big monopolies on the beer here were blocking it going to 7/11 and other stores. It is a shame really as I would love to see it on draft. With the ASEAN trade agreement I thought it would be easy. It would certainly knock the crap they serve at present here in Thailand from the local beers. No wonder the breweries are ensuring it doesn't get here. 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dibbler Posted March 20, 2015 Share Posted March 20, 2015 In Petchabun,anyone know? Close enough to Lao you might as well go and drink it there! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stoli Posted March 20, 2015 Share Posted March 20, 2015 About a year and a half ago the gentleman the owns 7-11 bought Makro, so it is no surprise to see Lao moving from Makro to the 7-11 stores. All alcohol is charged by the Thai government a tax that is based on the alcohol content. This was one reason for Chang to reduce their 6% beer to 5% a year ago. With Lao at 6.5%, it is going to cost more simply because of the extra tax imposed on it. Wines are taxed that same way, based on alcohol content.

dragonfly94 Posted March 20, 2015 Share Posted March 20, 2015 (edited) chang went from 6.4 to 6. How come lao khow at 40% is so cheap, maybe to keep the workers docile? Edited March 20, 2015 by dragonfly94 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dick turpin Posted March 20, 2015 Share Posted March 20, 2015 Used to buy it at Tops for 65 baht a bottle until the lady at Tops told me about the Makro price, the downer being you can only buy it by the case at 1,000 baht plus a go. And as I tell the missus, once a case has been opened it has to be consumed within two days. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dragonfly94 Posted March 20, 2015 Share Posted March 20, 2015 (edited) why did sigha go down to 500 mil bottles?, lots I know gave up on it after. Lao is not a bad price in Villa, 59 I think now. Edited March 20, 2015 by dragonfly94 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
