Heineken 0.0% lager

Post by nmcd1649 » July 30, 2019, 10:05 pm

Just enquiring if any one knows if HEINEKEN 0.0% (non alcoholic) lager has reached the shelves of supermarkets or bars in Udon yet. ....and if so any indications of prices. ...this non alcoholic beer is now very popular in Europe and I believe also Australia...

Yes it is. Country Bar and Brickhouse sell, along with others. Available wholesale in soi Sampan. Priced the same as San Mig light in the Bars.
Cheers

Thank you for your replies. ..that's great news..I have been drinking it for a couple of months now and find it way better than a lot of the other non alcoholic lagers. .good to know it will be available for my annual trip to Udon later in the year. .

I was riding the escalator down from 2nd floor Big c and next to me was a Thai guy with a case of Hieniken in his basket. I asked him "how much" He told me and then said it was for his friend who was trying to stop drinking.
Sorry, but that makes me chuckle. ..
A guy trying to stop drinking beer..probably because he's trying to detox and having shakes, isn't going to somehow" convince his brain, he's going to make it. His brain is screaming "sugar" and all those other nasty chemicals they put in the beers and everything we eat. Think of the first time you ever hit a cigarette, or a shot of whiskey..pretty nasty , right? But, we accquire these tastes. My challenge: Accquire a taste for water with a squirt of lime and honey. Cheaper, better and more readally available to you.

Wide Awake...I hear what you are saying... due to medical reasons I have given up drinking alcohol...however... I do not want to give up going to bars as I enjoy the company and meeting friends etc....I would not like to sit in a bar drinking the tipple you have described and I think few of the bars would have jars of honey available...so I will stick to the Heineken Zero which I quite enjoy...and can drive home afterwards without the fear of blowing positive on the breathalyser. ..

[-X I was interested in tasting this and attempted to buy a can from Tesco Lotus but they would not sell it to me as it was during the "Non alcohol" black out time.

Tescos working on the principal that if a 5% abv Chang can contain 9% in Udon then a 0% Heineken could possibly contain up to 4% :lol:

Hmm, stopped drinking Heineken when I learned that it had the highest content of that Herbicide "RoundUp", so would also stay away from a NON, just saying.

"hopefully they start brew them here ..."

perhaps it may be wiser to wait until you taste the stuff b4 you get your hopes up kopkei, if its as bad as regular Heineken the less they "brew" the better :-&

In my current profession im always up for the tasting of new and interesting beverages .. but i can honestly say ive never tried it ..

HORSE PISS that is .. but i digress ... whilst in the company of a non drinker who was drinking the said 0 % Heiny i did have a small not small enough taste and can concur it reminded me of run off from the roof after a rain shower.. SH*TE , i much prefer beer brewed n fermented in the correct manner with the finished product containing the demon alcohol :guiness:

I guess you, like me, have not been lucky enough to drink horsepiss - and therefor not in a position to make a valid comparison. ;)
