Tawandang: Unmistakably Thai

We managed to convince our wives to accompany us to the opening weekend at Tawandang Microbrewery (TWD) for a tasting excursion. It’s the lastest microbrewery to open its taps in Singapore and prides itself as being Thai-German. Why? That’s because they brew German-styled beers while serving authentic Thai food.

New VB Telly Commercial – feat. the regular blokes

My favourite beer has a new commercial. But its very Aussie contexted, so I’m not feeling the full relevance, though I can appreciate that it would be a blast for true blue Australians in heart or mind.

Seriously Extra Large Ice Cube

Folks – Godzilla was not a gecko. And not all ice cubes are made equal. When I was at a new-ish pub/restaurant called KPO at the junction of Killiney/Penang/Orchard Roads (hence the name), I was lucky enough to catch a glimpse of the largest ice cube commercially made for fitting into your high ball glass, [...]

Propoganda in a bottle

We’ve been wanting to blog about beer commercials but we’ve been too busy, stressed, lazy, full, indecisive to do so. Here’s our first, certianly not our fav and never in my wildest dreams would I have imagined it would be a beer commercial from North Korea. Taedong River Beer is the pride of Pyongyang says [...]

Woo hoo! More beer!

We’ve got 2 pieces of good news today! First, the guys from Brewerkz started following us on Twitter! What’s the big deal? We know someone’s reading this blog! Well, we’ve been diehard fans of Brewerkz for almost 10 years now. I read a feature of one of the partners a few years back and absolutely [...]
