So far the highest beer (alcoholic content) that I can find here is Tapper beer at 6.5 percent alcohol. Is there any other beers here with a higher alcoholic content.

Beer tastes best around 4-5% anyway 🤷
Peter *******
Cheers Extra 6% petrol aftertaste, the rest are under 5%, you'd think they'd be decent choice over 5%

Andy ********
You can get Duval, expect to pay twice as much as a local beer though..
Jo **********
@Andy *******
the name Duvel means Devil. A very strong golden ale at 8.5 %. it’s called Duvel because it’s golden, crisp and smooth and hits you hard
Jo **********
yes there are beers from Belgium that you can buy in high end supermarkets up to 11%
Luc ************

Det finns massor med stout och andra öl med högre alkoholstyrka än 6.5.

Hittade säkert 10 på Villa Market och fler på Central Bagna.
Colin *******
Hong Thong 35%
Colin *******
Not exactly a beer but add it to chaing and it livens it up
Ben ***********
Can't imagine having a session on much stronger lol. 5 pints of 5-6% ipa or something does me in hah.
Nongnuch ********
obviously not, because the Thai government about ten years ago started to tax beers with an alcohol content of more than 5% like they would taxate wines and whiskies. I like the TAPPER very much, it has this rich taste of hops and malt
Av **********
Sounds like u need to hit a local AA meeting...they have them in English all around thailand
Terry **********
@James *********
cheers bud
James **********
@Terry *********
I thought your response was spot on.
Terry **********
@James *********
maybe I shouldn't have used "direct them", it would have been better to use "possibly suggest".
James **********
@Terry *********
Telling people that they should go to AA is NOT what a member (that has a clue), would do. If you want to drink, that's your business. Av Giuliano you can find the clues in the book.
Terry **********
Terry **********
@Av *********
I don't need help. The op was asking a genuine question. It doesn't mean he needs the services of AA. Neither do I, believe me. If I think or believe that I or people I know would possibly need the services of the AA, then I would certainly direct them.

My final word. You don't know me, my background OR my previous experiences or not with alcohol. So can I politely suggest that you keep your thoughts, regarding this, to yourself. Bear in mind some people have a sense of humour, and sometime times a sense of humour is used to help with issues, obviously not in your case. So be very careful when you decide to vent your thoughts and how it's done.

Goodnight young lady.

@Terry *********
obviously you didn't go, because the meeting on soi 11 Is at the ambassador hotel and you have to pass like 25 bars to get there and there is a bar in the lobby of the meeting. Anyway I hope you get the help you need.
Terry **********
@Av *********
I went there once. It was shite, there was no bar.

Cheers
