Tiger 630ml unchilled 55 baht
Singha 500ml unchilled 54 baht (!)
Leo (looked like 500ml but couldn't find quantity on the label) 53 baht.

Came away with half a case of Tiger (obviously..) :)
Leo is 640ml

I still don't get the reason for this to suddenly prompt a change of brand. What's the difference between buying a 660ml bottle of Singha at 64bt (or whatever it was) compared to a 500ml at 54bt?

I understand why people would chose to drink another brand because Singha is more expensive... I just don't get why this, in particular, would prompt the change...

I must say that I need to change brands from time to time regardless of the price.

I usually drink Singh, but after a while the taste of Tiger is a pleasure, followed by a ghastly period on Leo before returning back to the Singh.

I noticed last month along with the smaller Singa bottles.



Their are Two different Changs the stronger one is Chang Draft and Chang Export is the 5% one, more of a session beer it took me a few hangovers to work that one out :D but you could say " same same but different" buddy.

I also noticed that the Chang Draft had a lowered strength at 6% but I don't think it compromised its flavour.
