World Beer Index 2021
World Beer Index 2021
There's a lot of complaints about inflated beer prices in Thailand and some like to quote how beer is a lot cheaper in the Philippines. According to this, it's only about half a buck a bottle cheaper. Unfortunately, there's no data from Myanmar, Laos, Vietnam or Cambodia.

Strange they have left out Oz and NZ
Re: World Beer Index 2021
The China figure is BS and apparently Aussies & Kiwi's don't drink beer, looks like a dodgy article
I had a bumper sticker in Texas that read 'Beam me up Scotty'. I often wish I could find one in Udon Thani

Re: World Beer Index 2021
All a bit silly, really.
All they have done is averaged the prices of a 330ml bottle between a supermarket and a hotel in the respective cities.
While the supermarket prices should be fairly competitive (and comparable) in each city, the hotel prices could vary wildly, between a suburban pub, or a 6 star hotel.
Anyone who has had a beer in a bar in Singapore, and also Bangkok, would recognise that immediately.
Also doesn't ring true for Beijing, although my data points are a bit dated.

Like someone comparing a bottle of proper beer to a bottle of p*ss (budwieser/heinekin or fosters )..... total waste of time

Re: World Beer Index 2021
Not unusually, we seem to be straying off course.
The thread is about the (relative) price of beer around (most of) the globe - not the relative merits of any particular brew.
The former is entirely objective, while the latter is undoubtedly subjective.
statts, you've done it again.
