Good on you as you might be so lucky to be so full that you don't don't bother to drink the most horrible beer in the world anymore.

Anyway, most beer in Thailand is crap so might as well drink the cheapest (apart from the really shite stuff) as a good friend once said to me. I am quite happy with Archa, certainly beats Chang and Singha.. wouldn't even consider heineshite totster

Don't know what your topic is about but beer discussions never fail If you live near the Lao border you can stock up on the beer Lao. Or do they sell that nowadays in Los? Anyway, happy drinking and eating. Posted with Thaivisa App http://apps.thaivisa.com #10

Platinum Member Posted 2012-01-05 21:43:46 tough life though.. however straight from the can they aren't too tasty, marinante 'em, especially the black ones... rinse with hot water, 2-3 x, then let sit for "a while", discard water, add fresh warm water and lime juice.. let rest again... then may be after 30 min. (or so) discard lime juice water, add some garlic (to taste, from the press or crushed), some x-tra virgin olive oil, a drizzle of lime juice, if liked, some mediterranean herbs, tupper ware container or similiar to keep for at least 24 hrs.

Only tried A bottle of the dark beer Lao. Was on on the scooter at the time with the wifey and 2 crates of regular beer Lao. That sounds bad, I mean I had the bottle in a bag just to try when I got home.
Oooooooo I have a special 6 assorted pack of Hertog Jan when I get back to the Netherlands. May wait till Liverpool secure a top 4 finish before cracking that open  Posted with Thaivisa App http://apps.thaivisa.com #15

I am quite happy with Archa, certainly beats Chang and Singha.. I believe the Thais out did themselves when they intoduced Archa a few years back.....supposedly to create a shi*tier beer than their target market - Chang domestic. They succeeded well. I gave up on Singha and Tiger years ago, as both come weaker than my urine. Chang? No more [it's not 100% beer]. Leo has become the everyday, as Beer Lao [love this elixir] and Chang Export [nothing like it's brethren] are hard to come by in the middle-of-nowhere. #18

I've changed from Leo to Chang Export. They have been promoting it in my town (Sisaket) with good availability. Leo sells at my local bar at Bt55 Export at Bt50. It has a better flavour and a smoother beer imho.

i saw the other thread somewhere about chang export (100% malt) in oct/nov time before i came home on leave last time. although skeptical about the chances of a decent domestic thai beer, i duly tried it while home and happily it's the first thai beer i can say i genuinely like - a large head and shoulders above any other domestic thai beer i have tasted, and is also better than some of the more readily available imports (pauleiner etc.).
hopefully it will stay in production ..... Edited by GooEng, 2012-01-06 14:09:08. #20

Next time you go to Big C etc stock up on cheese. If you can't get feta try to find a a similar, salty cheese, prefferabley not too hard ( something like Cheshire, wensleydale or Lancashire) cut it into cubes and cover it in Olive oil and a bit of sea salt and a couple of bay leaves. It should keep for several weeks if you don't eat it too quick GB #23
