There are a lot of beers to chose from in Thailand. We can't list all of them that are available, but what is your favorite beer here in Thailand?

Please feel free to leave a comment.

OLD Chang was my favourite. The new Chang is rubbish, so now I've gone to back to the more flavoured Singha.

Beer Lao. Out of all of the others it is a question of which is the least nasty and for me that is Tiger.

Of all the commonly available ones it's a choice of which you dislike the least.

My favourite beer is the one in my hand.

The best beer is the one that someone else paid for.

Leo. In the can. A very, very cold can.

None of the above. Dreadful stuff, especially Leo

It says a lot when a country like Laos can brew much superior beer.

Recently I've been getting dreadful hangovers on Heineken so have switched to Tiger Light when I can find it, Singha /Singha light as a backup.

I visit the Philippines 3-5 times a year & drink SML (San Miguel Light) but after 6 or so, start getting heartburn.

Agree with the comments about a nice cider over ice, but again after 6 or so I get heartburn so have to switch

Mr OP, technically your list is the most part largers not Beer as such anyway..but with the exception of many be an ocassional Chang, for the rest i would rather drink cats urine than have to subject my taste buds to those so called "beers" on your list

Archa.

Sorry

All it says is monopoly.

Of the Thai beers, my favourite has to be Chang Draught, which is much cleaner and crisper than classic Chang, which I don't really like very much.

I like Archa as well.

Archa?

ANything imported!

I used to like the Londoner Pub's drafts. Anything 'homemade' or draft is better than something from a bottle. But if I have to choose by the bottle my order is Chang, Tiger then anything else. Lao is quite good but not Thai of course. If the AEC ever really develops it would be nice to see what other ASEAN beers are out there.

All it says is monopoly.

So you're saying that Beer Lao is good because it's a monopoly (99% domestic market share)?

The best beers made in Thailand are clearly the microbrews, like Full Moon, Chit, Sandport, Team Alpha, and Seven Two. Not generally available in stores but you can order some of them online.

Red Horse

New Chang is my favourite, old Chang was rubbish.

Kirin if you can find it

Can't get the Hang Of Chang. 3on a Sunday and I post more rubbish than usual,but 3 Leoes and no Mr Grumpy..[emoji481][emoji481][emoji481]

Beer made in Thailand by locals is rubbish! Belgium and Germany rule, when it comes to beer making. Thus, whenever I can afford, I opt for German or Belgium beers. There are some micro breweries around, one here in Jungceylon, which serve tasty home brews as well. All of them have foreign partners (professional brewers) involved. Never order a pizza in a Chinese restaurant

surprised to hear other people getting heartburn from thai beer - i unhappily fall into this camp -and now drink cider

whether its a gluten thing or not - don't know - probably

but i now stock Corona and Asahi .

Leo is top seller- amazing how quickly it went to no 1 spot.best of a bad bunch- so often in thailand the consumer gets screwed while the monopolies dictate what we should drink.

don't forget the idiots in charge of taxation- don't want you to enjoy a healthy glass of red wine at reasonable prices

they want you to drink lao kao or are happy to sell you cheap crap from india and russia - TIT

My favorite was Chang Export, now I can no longer find !

Beer in Thailand: Hoegaarden.

Thai beer: Singha.

Si', Senor! Might get a sour one now and again, gotta check the production date stamp. Usually no problem if from a shop / pub with a good turn over.

Hoegaarden

I agree Bunnychow , beer and lager are not the same thing , years ago I looked up lager in a dictionary and it said ' weak beer '. Ok things change so not weak any longer but still not beer. I voted for Chang , there is none in the house right now but I do have a few bottles of Hoegaarden , acquired 3 days at 45B per bottle . Not Thai so not got my vote.

I hope the number of responses to this survey on something as dear to expat hearts as 'beer' is not an accurate reflection on the 'traffic' enjoyed by this forum.
