The new contract for Draught Guinness comes into effect on 14th June......So all you Guinness lovers like myself won't be broken hearted on your next visits to BKK or PTY

So, is draught Guinness now available ?

As an aside I saw a sign in the Queen Vic (Soi 6  Pattaya) window that draught Carlsberg was "coming soon"  - now, there's a turn-round.

Carlsberg is a great beer. I don't know why they failed in Thailand.
My wife is saying they were sold here in Thailand but than suddenly disappeared!

In the right price I'll rather them over the Leo for example.. 

Article from the past:
Thai brewery claims damages from Carlsberg
18/03/2004 13:00 
On 27 August 2003 Carlsberg terminated its licence agreement with Carlsberg Brewery (Thailand) Company Limited (CBTL) because of a failure by CBTL to perform its contractual obligations, not least the payment of royalties which were due under the licence.  CBTL is owned by Carlsberg's former partner in Asia, Khun Charoen Sirivadhanabhakdi.

CBTL has commenced an arbitration in Bangkok against Carlsberg and Carlsberg has now received a Statement of Claim from CBTL, which states that the notice of termination was invalid and that CBTL claims damages for a wide range of losses in amounts "to be established", but which are expressed to be for a sum of no less than US$ 500million.

Carlsberg and its external lawyers are convinced that CBTL's allegations are without any merit, that the termination of the licence is lawful and that no damages are payable by Carlsberg.

Furthermore, Carlsberg considers that the figure of US$ 500million is wholly unrealistic and lacks any factual basis.  Only very limited volumes of Carlsberg beer were sold in Thailand in recent years.  In the light of existing arbitration between Khun Charoen/Chang Beverages and Carlsberg in London, Carlsberg believes that the inclusion of such a figure in the Statement of Claim is no more than a tactic.
