It's 8 and 6.8 percent.

It left me deeply disappointed when I just wanted to get a little tipsy.

Looks like Laos is 6.8 and Singapore 6.

Remember when Chang used to be much stronger but don't know if it's still same. Know the size of big bottles of singa shrunk.

I heard they used to just say Chang was x strength but was really random and you could end up wasted.

yeah used to be 6.4%, then went down to 6%, mate told me that its been dropped all the way to 5% but i havent noticed yet, ill go downstairs for a beer and let you know lol
yeah dont think the strength was regulated from what i used to get told, aparently some had been tested and been 10/12% or something, could just be hearsay, like the formaldehyde thing
