Thai Beer

Brewed by Boon Rawd Brewery
Style: Malt Liquor
Bangkok, Thailand

A light yellow beer with no head. The aroma is like dish wash water, while the flavor is sweet malty combined with a sourness and notes of corn.

(Bottle 63 cl) No surprise, this is a strong, golden lager. Quite hoppy but the alcohol is a bit too predominant for my liking. 161103

33 cL can. Pours clear yellow with a huge white head. Sweet cereal aroma. Quite sweet flavour, not cloyingly sweet but just more than average. Has a minor artificial note. No real bitterness nor malt flavour. Mild finish. Strange brew, not in anyway offensive though.

Bottled. The label, which is a direct Bud rip-off, although in Thai letters, warns you for this beer. It purs pale golden and leaves a quick, bubbly head.The aroma is full of DMS and offputting like an old compost heap. It is sweet, very grainy, fruity and mellow. The garbage flavour is way to strong for me to even think about finishing this big bottle. The sink protests, but eventually lets it pass through.

Canned (thanks tbone_!). Yellow colour, big foamy white head, which disappears quite fast. Hay, sweet maize and some malty hints in aroma. Flavour is sweet maize, hay and alcohol. The alcohol is a lucky thing in this beer, as I feel it hides all the horrors in beneath...

Canned. Clear yellow coloured with a small off white head. Aroma of malts, corn and alcohol. Sweet flavour of malts, corn and hops.

Pale yellow. Grainy nose with slight hint of grassy hop. Light lager graininess with a stiff shot of alcohol. Finishes quickly, with a combination of lingering adjunct sweetness and alcohol.

Can (filled 06/2006)
Golden color, foamy white head. Corn-like sweetish and papery aroma. Starts sweetish with weak grassy hops. Finishing to alcoholic punch. Unbalanced tropical lager.
