What's up with the beer selection at most establishments in Thailand? Only Henekin & Singha at most places. I like Chang beer best myslef, but not very many places sell it. Why is this? Can someone explain.

Chang and import tax...? Chang is local production and is the "cheaper" version of Carlsberg, which is local production, too.
As for the selection of beer in the bars, I assume that the Thai people think the farang prefers Heineken and Singha over other beer available in LOS.

I prefer to drink Chang over Henekin any day. Maybe because at the market a couple houses away from me I can get 3 quarts for 100 bht.......and drinking 3-6 quarts everyday a guy might tend to get to like a particular brand over others.
Still, why not offer Chang instead of Singha? Singha tastes like Horse Piss (I have never actually tasted horse piss, but could imagine it is not too good). Maybe it's because the Chang might be good enough to ruin the Henekin sales? Henekin 1 small bottle 100-150bht and you could sell Chang for 50-70 bht for a small at the beer bars.

The re-branded Singha is a great imprvement as I mentioned once before....I refused to drink it for 10 years or so...got one by mistake....still thinking of ordering one when out...but scared of getting an old bottle......

I always find a cold Heinken, Singha, Carlsberg and Kloster (my favorite) at the GG/B=bar etc. However, Chang, Leo and others are quite common in restaurants for the locals....

Actually some of the "micro breweries" in the US make some decent beer but I'd rather drink water than any of the big US brands.
Anyway almost nothing beats a good German beer IMO.

IMHO the almost nothing that beats a good german beer is "a good belgian beer". Sadly AFAIK they are not available in BKK... Or would somebody know better ?

PHANTOM,
I am tasting at the moment HOEGAARDEN. The original Belgian white beer....The duty free of our office provide us with a good selection of this excellent cloudy beer twice a year....however, very limited amount though. It sucks!
