| Found Beer Lao in Homeplus in Busan a month or two ago. They also had Bia Hanoi, Saigon beer, and San Miguel dark, which was also good. |

I went back today and bought 15 more. I was going to buy them all, but I thought I should leave some in case someone saw this thread and went looking for some. |
I left a handful (mainly because I was worried about my backpack straps snapping) at Ori after grabbing a fresh dozen. Go get'em! It's pure gold after living mainly off the fizzy urine Koreans call beer. |

@Smudger,
So you're the w@#*%r who bought all the Beer Lao...just kidding! I picked up a couple bottles on Sunday. I've heard great things about it though never tried it before. I'm sure it tastes better whilst lying on a boat floating lazily down the Mekong, but it's a hell of a lot better than Cass/Hite/OB. |

None at the Ilsan (LaFesta) Homeplus. 
Oh well, at least we got big cheap pizza there. |

Wow, seriously have any of you guys lived in SE Asia and been forced to endure drinking that crap?
Why oh why would you think beer Lao is a good beer? I wasn't suggesting that I enjoyed drinking Chang, either. It is hideous, yet preferable to beer Lao.
Also, as I am not American, I have no interest in drinking Budweiser, Miller etc.
Anyway, each to their own, right?
Enjoy your beers. I guess it's a good thing that you have found the beer you like for a good price. |

| It's not the best beer but it sure is much better then Korean crap... I grabbed a 12pk a month or so ago from the Centum City Homeplus in Busan. Would be nice if they carried it more often! |

and it messes your head up nicely  |
Nothing like a good Chang-over on a hot, humid morning in Bangkok. The sights (hookers, trannies and beggars), sounds ("You! You my friend! Where you go today? I take you nice massage/friend jewellery store/see Buddha") and smells (fish sauce/nam pla mixed with sewage) really suit it nicely. All part of the experience.
But I'm going to side with popular opinion and say Beer Lao is about a million times better than Chang. Sadly I'm yet to see it in my local HomePlus. |
