No Idea bar in Bangkok
Not more than a ten minute walk from the place we were staying is a strangely named “gastropub” called No Idea. The exterior is nice and the interior just as pleasant. We wandered in because of the creative sign urging women to leave their men there so they didn’t interrupt shopping. We were greeted with …
Tawandang Brewery in Bangkok, Thailand
What did Pepper want to do before spending four days in the hospital during a medical trip to Thailand? Go to a brewery. I’m awfully lucky. She did her research and found the Tawandang brewery. They have two locations. We went to the one on Rama 3. They have seating for a good 700 or …
How to host a beer tasting tournament

Sol beer with lime
We saw these cans of Sol at a small grocery store near our hotel. Buying drinks away from a hotel and carrying them back is way less expensive than the hotel bars. But i’ll never be wasting any Pesos on this beer again. It was awful.
Montejo and Victoria
We’ve gotten into making drinking glasses out of wine bottles… but beer and other bottles that have screen printing on them really are pretty. The glass is much thinner so they are really tough to cut and polish well though. We’re wishing we could bring these back with us… but we’re settling for asking for …
