If you come from South of Watford you won't know what real beer is!!

There are some good ales brewed all over England. You need to get about more when you're back home, Nookie - good for the figure.

Anyone who considers LEO to be a decent beer must be used to drinking 'catspiss'

Best of a bad bunch nookiebear IMHO. Mind you, I have taken a shine to Chang Export of late.

Australia suffers from the same problem as well. The run of the mill XXXX (fourx)- VB - Melb Bitter - swan etc etc are borderline.

About the only decent beer comes out of Tasmania (again, IMHO)

But everyone to their own when it comes to beer.

You guys live in Thailand, is there really a need to buy hot sauce (such as Tabasco)? Thailand is the land of different chili sauces. Mix  up a little prik nam pla for a couple of baht. That is similar to an Eskimo buying ice from a store.

I have to agree with that. One of my favorites is "Old Speckled Hen"  from a cask.

Your right there Somnat! If you ever come to Launceston I will be happy to take you for a Boags. In fact the beer festival is on soon

Having litterally been around the world with the military, I use their qualification guide:

1.  Is if free?

2.  Is it Cold? 

3.  Now we can talk brands. 

[John the Traveller]

Sounds a fair guide

JTT.... I will be in Brisbane next Tuesday. I have already issued instructions to my hosts to have at least one carton of James Boag's premium chilled and waiting.

[John the Traveller]

Now I know you will enjoy yourself Somnat ;-))
Brisbane is a good city as well....enjoy.

I meant to post 2 days ago, but got sidetracked and oldtimers kicked in. 


Went to Buriram Makro and bought 2 cases of Leo (12 pk bottle).  This was on 19 Nov, the date on the box was 16 Nov.  Looks like they are getting fresh Leo. 


However, do not expect cases of canned Leo, seldom available. 

[nookiebear]

Local suppliers around Nong Ki /Nang Rong have plenty of LEO in both cans & bottles
