doggie1955 Posted April 13, 2017 Share Posted April 13, 2017 I know some bars sell Corona beer, but can you buy it at any of the stores here? Now someone did tell me about Wishbeer home delivery. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
phuketjock Posted April 13, 2017 Share Posted April 13, 2017 Yes tops, villa, macro, and many supermarkets stock it. It is expensive. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ukrules Posted April 13, 2017 Share Posted April 13, 2017 The last time I looked at the local Makro it was 135 Baht / bottle in a 6 pack but that was 3 or 4 years ago so it's probably gone up a bit since then. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BigKahuna Posted April 13, 2017 Share Posted April 13, 2017 Very expensive. Very weak beer also. Without lime it has no flavour. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gjoo888 Posted April 14, 2017 Share Posted April 14, 2017 Villa Market sells Corona for 138 Baht per bottle. In Bangkok, you can have it delivered for free (with minimum purchase) from Honestbee Delivery: https://honestbee.co.th/en/stores/villa-market/departments/3312/categories/18892 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bra Posted April 14, 2017 Share Posted April 14, 2017 Why would you want to drink Corona? No one drinks it in Mexico and certainly not with a slice of lemon - that's for Gringos. There are some excellent beers in Mexico but Corona is not one of them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's considered hip to drink shitty Mexican beer in BKK... I saw it in a Thai move once, 555 ? Edited April 14, 2017 by SiSePuede419 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As Ulic suggested replace it with San Miquel Light with a slice of lime, same thing at around 1/3 of the price. Corona here in Thailand doesn't taste the same as back in Oz for some apparent reason and is 3 times the price here for a box. San Miquel Light or nothing for me.

survivalblue Posted April 14, 2017 Share Posted April 14, 2017 You could always drink cat urine, It's probably the same quality as Corona. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jai Dee Posted April 14, 2017 Share Posted April 14, 2017 (edited) Tesco Lotus sells Corona Extra Beer 355ml for 129 baht per bottle - see here. You can get 6 x 330ml bottles of San Mig Light for 239 baht - see here. I know what I would be buying. Edited April 14, 2017 by Jai Dee Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Peterw42 Posted April 14, 2017 Share Posted April 14, 2017 I like corona, easy to drink, great on a hot day. I also like San Miguel Light, but for a long time I was drinking it thinking it was low alcohol not low calorie. A lot of unexplained hangovers, lol Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Peterw42 Posted April 14, 2017 Share Posted April 14, 2017 (edited) Tops supermarket also (often) sells these, Coronita's mini coronas 200ml. I cant really see the point, its the same beer in a smaller bottle. Some marketing guy had to use up his budget, lol Edited April 14, 2017 by Peterw42 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
portroyal Posted April 14, 2017 Share Posted April 14, 2017 We have Corona in Makro Hua Hin, very expensive at 140/bottle love Corona but too expensive for me Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
brianj1964 Posted April 14, 2017 Share Posted April 14, 2017 (edited) I love Corona too, and it aint cheap, my wife bought me some from Tops, and I told her she shouldnt have spent the extra. as others have suggested, San Miguel light tastes very similar or Tiger light with lime Edited April 14, 2017 by brianj1964 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tutsiwarrior Posted April 14, 2017 Share Posted April 14, 2017 I remember when Corona and the lime appeared in California in the 70s and I made it as a marketing trick on gringos...never saw no mexicans drinkin' it, they preferred bud tall boys... not to say that I'm puttin' down the OP's brew, everyone's got their own taste...some folks even like chang and singha... double gilbeys with soda and a splash (tend towards bottled naam manao these days), please...

bazza73 Posted April 14, 2017 Share Posted April 14, 2017 Everyone is wasting their time drinking anything but locally made beers. Why? The shelf life on most beers is three months, maximum six. After that, most of the flavour components have degraded.That bottle of Corona or anything else imported has undergone the rigours of getting to Thailand from its place of origin, then probably has been sitting on a supermarket shelf for anything up to a year because it's more costly. IMHO there's nothing wrong with the local beer - my personal preference is Leo. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

212Roger Posted April 14, 2017 Share Posted April 14, 2017 Corona? Really? It was rated the worst tasting beer in a recent survey. Three out of 10 stars; forgot the source however. Like they say, advertising sells. Tastes like perfume to me. In California, only women drink Corona. Perhaps they like the presentation, the bottle's neck is fully salted and a slice of lime added.
