Anyone know of a store in Chiangmai City that sells beer cheap?

The Bottle Shop on Nimman (near Tesco) sells cheap beer. A bottle of London Pride is only about 160B.

Cheap beer ? Thai or Foreign .?..Anyway all stores are very similar in price i find .I drink Chang ,and the cheapest shop near me ( mum and pop style ) sell a large bottle for B50 ,compared to B54 at 7/11 . You may make larger savings by buying beer by the box at Makro .Their wine is also a few Baht cheaper than most .( especially if you buy a 3 or 5 lt box ) .

the best values I have seen are on boxes of 12 large Tigers or 12 large Singha at Makro for about 55 per bottle. Some of the other stores will have a similar price on the large Singhas, but the Tigers by the box are hard to find...many only sell individuals..but still Tops at KSK charges 55 for a large Tiger..so that is 660 THB. Night and day vs. Elephant piss or Lion piss. Tops at Airport Plaza is decent, too. Large Elephant pisses are 555 thb per case at Tesco Ex[ress and Lion piss is 568....but you can get a box of 500 ml Singhas for 556, but the large are a better deal per ml., by 1 or 2%.

why you so complicate?

Just buy sangsom( or home made Thai alcohol) and mixed with cola( not coca... have some another " cola" cheapest per ml)

at that point you might as well take a page from Kitty Dukakis' playbook, and drink some rubbing alcohol...or talk to the folks at PTT about some pure ethanol.

Made in T'land always cheaper, so avoid imports. Regarding 'taste', that is your choice.

For cheapest alcohol induced mental condition, agree with the Sonsong + cola drink. Possibly use the chinese 'bai jiu' which comes in a gallon jug and is what, 40%. Personally, i like Korean soju but too expensive here.

So its Foreign beer

Sorry about my poor english

I am not mean IN Thailand have import beer.

I mean

Thailand( domestic produced) beer

best value....630ml x 12 box at Tops KSK, Singha=640 THB...now if they would only get some fresh ones. The 4 packs of small Tiger cans are pretty good at 120 thb, and just perfect for those times when a bottle is just too much, like checking the mail or letting someone in the front door.

I still think being able to buy 500ml of good beer for only about twice the price of an awful 640ml lager is a bargain.

If you drink like a (Chinese) girl, maybe. And actually more like triple, and the pesticide residues in the german beers? As long as farang keep paying ridiculous import taxes on non-essential items, the Thais rarely buy. the Excise department isn't even going to consider lowering them.

I agree the import prices on imported beer are ridiculous, but it are not the Farang that I see buying those heavily priced beers, but Thai! Ever been to Nimanheamin recently?

Also other heavily taxed products, like imported cars.... mainly Thai buy them, so it's the Thai that keep import taxes high by buying those products.

Nimman is a needle in a haystack...and apparently the bottle shop is "moving." Agree about the cars though, and then they go slap a jap engine in it....or import the car in pieces to avoid the taxes. This is one of the last places I would want to own a luxury car..tax or no tax....a surplus T-34, maybe.

What you mean "If you drink like a (Chinese) girl"?

I am not Farang, so may be i am lost some?

In thailand almost ALL have double and even triple price..

Import tax have foralmost ALL

and thailand not produce much any..

And alcohol business it higth profit

even not in Thailand where labor cost cheap and alcohol drink as "Chang" thai called beer also higest.

how i know in this is business. SO Normal beer( even not very higth qulity) not "non-essential items" and thats why the Excise department isn't even going to consider lowering them.

Not going to consider lowering tax becouse have less buy domestic alcohol..

it is a closed market without competition

With very GOOD profit..

While I've seen some American girls drink 8 or 9 beers, and I'm sure the Brits and Ozzies would be good company; I've never seen a Chinese girl rapidly drink large beers, one after another, especially high alcohol ones. Alchy Chinese girls are more likely on the voddie or cognac...might be a fun night if you know any, who do "drink beer like water." So, therefore, at 180 thb per beer x 1 for you and 1 for her...that's manageable, but if you've even know what a frat house is...chances are you can do 8-10+ in one sitting, without even bingging, and all of a sudden you just spent 4000 THB on your beer for the night....kind of pricey by most standards.

160b a bottle is on par or less than you would pay in most English pubs. If you buy the bottles in a supermarket they will be cheaper than here.

yeah, that's a big problem..consumer prices are a ripoff in the UK...so we have a whole chorus of people, who think stuff is a fair deal, when in fact, it has a 2-400% tax built in. A premium 500 ml import runs 120 THB in the Sates. Domestic microbrews like Red Tail or Rogue or Sierra Nevada can be as little as 35 thb each for a 355 ml to 70 thb....bars are usually a rip-off, but occasionally some 2 x 1, or 1 or two dollar import drafts during HH.

Do you realy want girl who often does it? I guess cant say she be slim

ANd this is talking about get drunk.

so in my post up I say some way can do it more cheapest..

but can share more as:

1. 50-70% С2Н5ОН 96% alc( in Thai have it?)or thai home made alcohole + 50-30% Chang( or another lovcost low alcohol thai drink) in minimum 200gr glass an better in one time/ can 2 time for girl

2.In soda siphon pour С2Н5ОН 96% alcor thai home made alcohole but only 60-70% full( another way can BOOM!!) and after drink it

3. 90-95% С2Н5ОН 96%+ 10-5% alcliquid nitrogen( in Thai have?)= 200gr glass.. for girl better no give drink

spent 4000 THB on your beer for the night.

Yes is it.

But in bar in Thailand its not 160.. it 250-400

Hi, my name's Jim and I'm an alcoholic. That's all this thread actually says. If you're that worried about 4 baht on a bottle of Chang... get a better job.

Two large, award winning, Tigers from tops for 110 thb per day...or two "Fagenwietzens" from a well known male meet-up place on Nimman at 360 THB? That's a difference of 7500 THB per month....that's more than most pay in rent.....2 beers a day? An alcoholic...better than being diabetic or just a plain axhole.

So what is you point?

yes eat meat its more highest cost when rice and few egg.

but rice with water and some grass it more cheapest.

So take home made thai alkohol and half mix with cola( not coca, have another brand)

can save probaly another 2700 per month

Or evene more

this is mix can compare with champagne( how much champagne in Thailand?)

both will sparkling alkohol drinks

it's not like comparing rice to steak, it;s like comparing a USDA Choice Steak to a USDA Select Steak...many would actually choose the Select grade steak..seen it with my own eyes.
