Title: Beer Lao (The Dark one) available in Buriram / Surin ?
Post by: iammike on December 12, 2014, 05:47:33 PM
Hi,

I was just wondering as 7/11 here in Pattaya now has Beer Lao (both varieties) for sale, if you can get Beer Lao Dark Lager in Buriram /Surin in places like Makro or Big C or somewhere else, or do I need to bring a couple of cases with me from Pattaya ?

Thanks

Tops in Surin has some but only by the bottle not by the case.  No sign of it in Buriram. Makro  Korat has. If you can get in sin city bring it with you. tonguebar2

Thanks GL, but shame to hear that it's hard to find.

Yep in Sin City no problem to find it, Makro has lots of it, and I was really surprised that even my local 7/11 carries it nowadays.

Like you, I too enjoy a bottle or 3 of BL Dark. If you can get it in Makro SinCity, Id suggest you bring it with you. I have seen it in a few Isaan Makro's but it as rare as Rocking Horse Sh!t. I have failed to be able to order it there too.

Like all things imported into LOS, there are always other ways to get it, nudge nudge wink wink!

Yeah I love that Beer, I think when I move to Krasang full time I have to set up a supply line from Pattaya - Buriram. A lot of things to hate about Pattaya, but you can get a lot of stuff there.

How much would NakornChaiAir charge to transport a case of beer ?

555555555555555

Edit: I just had a Brain Wave, whatif all Farangs that live in the Buriram Area and love Beer Lao, start asking for it when they go to Makro ? Maybe it will help.

Or maybe a good idea if Pichai starts a Retail Store for Beer (as we know he can source anything ) 5555555 :)

You cannot transport alcohol on busses.

I get it boxed not in the original BL boxes and delivered by the BIB.

How do you manage to have them do that ? Or is a part of the deal that they get some bottles of BL? ;)
