TKDfella Posted April 10, 2020 Share Posted April 10, 2020 (edited) Ha, won't affect me I'm TT...I was one of those guys that once said never again and stuck to it. I never did drink beer or whisky, just didn't like the taste that's all but I did drink red wine (Beaujolais, Burgundy). I was celebrating my birthday with some friends (my early 20's) and had one 'rum & black' to many...when I looked in the mirror I saw a 'green man' looking back at me ????(is that why some English pubs were called 'The Green Man? Ha!). I still remember that headache, Ha. Never touched it since...realised that I could still have a lot of fun without it AND remember it the next morning, Ha!????

Popular Post SupermarineS6B Posted April 10, 2020 Popular Post Share Posted April 10, 2020 (edited) They havn't checked with Mr CP yet, let's see what he says when his 7/11 sales start plummeting...... They've always wanted to stop alcohol, now here's the excuse.......They did the same with the train system, some Thai nut job raped and killed a girl on the train and of course the authorities blamed it on the sale of alcohol, complete SH&^%$, then they stopped all alcohol sales in the restaurant cars and turned a once pleasurable journey into a miserable experience and made everyone suffer including the staff who lost a good earner. They'll do the same all over Thailand if they can, but the saving grace is that the familys that control the booze have more clout than the Government............ The end is nigh Gentlemen......

Do they still have a bar/shop near the pier that only sells Chang? I used to go there in the mid 90s when Chang was stronger than now. It was always full of prison guards and me, quite surreal. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ChrisKC Posted April 10, 2020 Share Posted April 10, 2020 No ban or restriction in Lampang. I think this is because the Authorities know we are all moderate drinkers here and can manage without for a few days! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Right there with you mate. I am certainly bored of mainstream tasteless beer.

I've been bombarded with adverts for Punk IPA, and whilst I love the taste, B111 for 330ml(B666 for 6 bottles) isn't worth it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I even put them in my paniers when I ride along with a pair of press-up supports so I don't strain my wrists. Strained wrists don't work on bikes!

Glad to be in the -1*most crowd. I never drank lager before I arrived here. Took me years to get used to fizzy water. Remember drinking a bottle of Amarit at a street party downtown when a Thai guy approached me, told me he worked for Kloster and that Amarit was Kloster that failed QC. It only took that to get me off lager again. I'll happily abstain if plain is the only option. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And that's the problem, with prices high the demand is low, with low demand comes expensive unsold stock, and with that comes just a handful, and eventually none. ????
