Brewed by Boon Rawd Brewery
Style: Premium Lager
Bangkok, Thailand

Serve in Lager glass

Gekocht in een Toko in Emmen. Niet erg goed bier. vreemd smaakje.

Some sharper slight veggie aroma. Typical lager appearance but it sparkles nicely. Initial taste is mild metallic bitterness especially on the back of the throat. Grows to be mildly sharp. Goes down without much offense. Tolerably industrial finish. Probably would not think this is 6% as listed. Better than many domestic lagers. S4L3F3T4O10

Bottle. Pours translucent yellow, with white quickly-disappearing head. Aroma of mild hops, malt and barley, though more sour in on the tongue. Quite lively on the palate.

A refreshing improvement over American light lagers. Taste’s better in Thailand, much like camp food always taste’s better on a campout.

(Bottle). Sweet aroma. Yellow golden body, medium-size white head. Flavor is mostly watery, hardly anything there.

Singha! For all those non-Thai speakers this is pronounced ’’SING’’ not ’’SING-ha or sing-HA’’. It means ’’lion’’ in Thai. Had this multiple times per day when I lived in Thailand. For those in Thailand, this is usually the most expensive Thai beer and not much better than Chang or Leo. Bottle. Pours a light golden with high carbonation and a small, white head that quickly dissipates. Aroma is grass, slight hops, water, corn, and sweet malt. Initial taste is sweet and watery. Aftertaste has a bit of a hop bite but turns sour, metallic. Works well with spicy food but so do a lot of Asian lagers and this one for some reasons always commands a high price- especially imported to the US. The most prominent Thai beer but not the best in my opinion.

Good with Asian food, obviously, but not something I would have in another situation. Refreshing.

12 ounce bottle purchased at Total Wine Pembroke Pines, FL for $1.49 Nothing special.
