Reader question: Bring Dutch beer as a souvenir to Thailand

Hello in Laos you can buy Bavaria Beer so I think the Thai sometimes tastes that.
I drink beer in moderation, of course, but Bavaria Beer looks a bit like Leo, I think.
And I'm from Brabant so Bavaria is tasty haha ​​and the PSV football players also thought that on Monday at Stadshuisplein.

Doesn't matter, because LEO beer cannot be compared to Dutch beer.
It is also to let them taste different beer.
You could also bring spring buck or beer in higher alcohol %. There are so many beers. and generally drinkable, better than Leo I think. But that's western attitude.
Just pick a beer.
I also hope it will be accepted, as in cultures a gift can sometimes be seen as an insult. I don't know about the Thai situation.

Be aware that beer contains CO2 and you can expect some shaking in your suitcase. Before you start breaking them, be sure to cool them first and then again. And hope it doesn't blow out.
Wouldn't take bottles either, 1) heavy 2) fragile. So rather cans.
I also don't know if you want to buy them in a store or Schiphol (if they are for sale there). From the store you MUST put them in the suitcase, from Schiphol it is in a sealed bag and you can take it with you as hand luggage. Otherwise you will lose your cans when you want to take them with you as hand luggage.

Of course there is also a restriction in terms of export of the drink. You could fit a little more in your suitcase. Although I don't know how the detection of the suitcases reacts to this on the metal of the cans and alarm bells are ringing.?? After all, there are more metal objects in the suitcase.

I live in Thailand and I know that if a Thai drinks Leo then that's it, the same goes for Chang drinkers. There are many other brands available here, but you shouldn't touch them, at least where I live, if you want to surprise them, bring a few bottles of "Haerlemsch Winter", I think that will certainly make them happy, but be careful not to give them too much!!

I completely agree with Hank.
Bring something to surprise them with.
Leo or something similar can be found in abundance in Thailand. Nowadays, even Hoegaarden is available on tap in many places.
Bring a special beer or just a bottle of good whiskey. The lucky warrior can then show off this to the rest of the community.

We as real Achterhoekers also regularly take beer to Thailand.
The half liters of Grolsch (silencers) are doing very well for both the Thai and the expat!
After all, real beer kump uut Grolle!

Hello Lalita, If you buy the beer in the Netherlands, it must be put in the suitcase. Take a look at the See Buy Fly website to see what they have or send an email with your question. Advantage it then goes as hand luggage.
Will be a bit more expensive but no mess possibly in the trunk. Please note that the tin turns black when it goes through the scan, just like crystal and silver.
