    wonder when bog standard homebrew became craft ?

    btw homebrewing ain't too complicated however the sterilizing of the bottles wears thin real quick .

      I brought a couple of tins of home brew lager here once from the UK for our schools Christmas bash.
      Managed to get 80 pints from them. We were lucky in getting a load of screwtop water bottles to store the beer in. The water from the bottles made the beer. For a couple of weeks all the schools darkest cupboards were stacked full of fermenting lager. Come the day, some of the Thai students were a bit apprehensive about chugging the stuff but on seeing the ajarns necking it and not dieing they quickly joined in. Bloody lovely it was ..... and strong too ( thanks to the extra sugar ). Tried to do it on a few other occasions but never reproduced the original success. The key was definitely in the screwtop bottles plus cool dark storage space.

        Brewing at Home and the Law
        One of the most asked questions regarding home brewing in Thailand is 'IS IT LEGAL?'
        In a nutshell 'NO'. It is illegal to home-brew alcohol whether it is fermented or distilled for personal consumption / sale.
        ***The law was updated in 2016. See below for details***
        A new law passed by the National Legislative Assembly in December 2016 raised the maximum penalty for illegal production to 100,000 baht or a prison sentence of six months, or both. The maximum fine for selling illegal beer was raised to 50,000 baht.
        This is a large increase to the 1950 liquors act which stated:
        "Section 5 of the Liquors Act (1950) states that it is illegal for anyone to brew their own alcohol, or even have the equipment to do so.
        The maximum penalty for contravention of this section of the Act is six months in jail, or a fine of 5,000 baht, or both.
        If the offender sells the liquour, the maximum penalty rises to a year in jail or a 10,000 baht fine, or both.
        Those are the maximum penalties and can be imposed for making and / or selling distilled alcohol (spirits).
        The maximum penalties for brewing or fermenting alcohol - wine or beer, for example - are lower: 200 baht for making it and 5,000 baht for selling it.'

          Don't you need a place with a constant cool temperature?
          Doesn't sound feasible, unless one wants to store barrels in one's aircon bedroom.

            Question: With hot weather here, what are some good beers to brew? What are some easy ways to keep my beer cool?
            Answer: It seems like in the LA basin that we are always fighting against fermentation temperatures that are a little too warm. Fortunately, there are a several good beer styles that aren't adversely affected by warm weather. I'm lucky enough to live close to the coast, where it rarely gets too hot for these styles. In addition, there are a number of fairly simple techniques you can use to keep the temperature down.

            Thailand might be too hot, but here is some info on brewing in hot weather.

                Yes ....reasonably cool but we got away with it by storing it in a dark cupboard under the school stairs. Wasn't too cool but no light got at it and no extreme heat. Came out OK.

                  It's weird that you can go to prison for 6 months for making your own beer in Thailand. The place is fcuked up.

                    Certainly not for a few casks to drink yourself, but if you're supplying the entire village for financial gain...
