Beer Lao in big bottles or the Thai beer Leo, finding they suit my tastes more than the over sweetness of most Cambodian beers that I only see fit has an alternative mouth wash, rinse and spit it out. But everyone to their own. Now a few shorts are a better call.

Beer Lao, 0.5l cans are just great, best deal anywhere.

When i came in 2013 first time to KOW i tried them all 3 together at the same time and place (Cadillac), and prefered Anchor, and still do. One of my exes who used to run a bar said that Anchor where the only who regullary came to clean the tap-installations, but thats 4 years ago. And about gout, i rarely have it in KOW, but if i do, usually its connected with drinking red-wine and Ricard, not beer. If i wake up in the morning with a strange feeling in my big tone, just take double Allopurinol and do it for 5 days (usually from monday to friday), and you are saved. Some friends take it all year, just to stay drinking, but i learned long time ago to listen to your body: if something hurts, its an alarmbel to wake you up: you are doing something wrong. But i always have it with me, Cheers, buuuwn Anchor sreysaart !!

Quick diversion: What do you pay for a 330 ml or 500 ml can of Leo from the mini-marts? Or 620 ml big bottles, if that's what you can buy? Thanks.

PS: Just checked. The bastards here in Thailand pinch 10 ml from the 500 ml cans = 490 ml.

I would never stop going to a bar just because it only had Anchor and no Cambodia. I would only stop going to a bar if all it had was that "craft" (homebrew) stuff.

Sure, but I don't like any of the ones I've had here. I agree all the lagers taste pretty much the same, but Angkor has a more bitter taste, and Ganzberg is complete crap.

If you have problems with gout, beer is certainly your enemy. Any beer. As far as I know, no beers contain uric acid, but purines which are broken down into uric acid in the body. I should think that the amount of purines in Cambodia and Anchor are similar (purines are a byproduct of the yeast fermenting), but maybe the prospect of prizes made you drink more

P.S.: As I suffer from gout, I have looked into this subject a little bit and ideally, no beer at all is the only way. A way I have not yet managed.

Cheesus , I quit drinking beer a little over a month ago , whenever I got gout or that acid i would wonder wtf did i eat ..
Never could figger it out
But so far my ‘ joints ‘ do feel better and no gout back since , but that can come and go at any time ,
my system was used to at least 12 beers on any normal day , more if i was ‘ racing’ against anybody or myself .

Now i find I get like stunned in the leg , or paralyzed like is that a chalie horse ?
Can’t remember whatchacallit but there is a medicine out
the word of the medicine is ______ worx like I forget the 1st word but i’m not sure if it’s only available thru Fox News is where I got the commercial next time i am going for the screenshot of the name and tollfree number..
or carpel tunnel where the fingers just curl and you gotta shake yer hand like a mofo to get it back to normal ,
Also that happens on the handlebars and gota grin and bear it
Waiting to hear more on that medicine it’s in a tube you rub it on
