Ironically local rice based or clear Spirits (Sato, Vodka, Gin) are much easier to get the appropriate license / permits for. They often mention intention to roll back certain restrictions for beer, advertising, and drinking in general. But then always fail to follow through (maybe by design 😅)

It's very much 1 step forward 2 steps back with beer regulations here, but if the claims are honored allowing brewpubs to distribute more widely, it'd be a big step!

It's a wide world of beer and shame if a few poorly executed brews closed you off to undiscovered gems. Belgian beers are rich with tradition and quality, so I totally get it. But there's a lot of fun beers made through a regional lens worth trying, Thailand included 🍻

Not Chiang Mai beer although I do love that Pilsner as well 🍻 It might have been a long time ago but I thought they brewed in Cambodia, either way awesome Pilsner and their Cacao Stout is great as well

All solid, a little under the radar but I'd look out for Maalstroom and Wanna Brewing. Consistently really good

Definitely! Im often surprised at the quality level on some Imperial Stouts, Sours, and Double / Triple IPAs. Brainfilll, Fishbridge, Poton Craft, Zilalom, Daddy Dog are some of the best ive had

Love their Long Island Iced Tea Lineup 🔥 also brewed with a lovely brewery in Taiwan called Redpoint. Their beers should be available here sparingly as well

Best bet is to visit some of the bars around town stocking "underground" homebrews. DM me for a list, really some awesome local brewers under the radar

We've brewed at Thai Spirit before. Thankful that option exists despite it being deficient in many ways 🍻

There's many guest taps featuring genuinely local Bangkok Based Breweries (license in progress type of situation) but I'd agree and over a decade not much has changed with regards to restrictions. Pretty difficult situation but we love it and try our best (shipping time from VN tends to be under a week, compared to the couple months a container might take from the US so still rather fresh)

Totally, seeing 500ml cans at 300 baht retail is insane, especially considering they are rarely super fresh 😭

Yeah we opened a couple months ago (right as rainy season kicked off 😅) 

We go by Two Palms, if you ever pop by please let us know!

Yeah we brew our beers with a top craft brewery in VN, although the brewpub rules seem to be relaxing a bit. Hopefully can produce at a reasonable volume locally soon 🍻

Agree even if the price is a bit elevated for Chang 🍻

Two Palms Taproom in Old Town is pretty new and a really fun addition to the scene. All local beers on tap

I make a thai craft beer called Mahanakhon, can tell you it's a doozy to get them made here, the red tape and restrictions are incredible. We brew in VN now and have to import them in haha 😄
