Thailand’s local craft beer scene is not strictly limited to the brewpubs and bottle shops in and around Bangkok, they also go international to show off what they have to offer.
Recently, a number of Thai craft breweries were awarded ‘down-under’ for the beers they brew. Is this an opportunity for more people to look at Thai craft beer in a positive light? Or at least is makes for a great shopping list looking to try some great Thai craft beer.
