Beer Archa was first launched in July 2004 to expand the market share, particularly in the standard and premium product groups, and to respond to increasing demands from a new generation of beer drinkers who prefer smooth beer with lower alcohol content. Beer Archa thus serves as another alternative for beer drinkers.

Himmel, ist das ekelhaft. Ich nippe nur dreimal daran, um hier noch irgendetwas einzutragen. Schmeckt, wenn überhaupt, erst im Bachgang nach Bier. Nichtmal im Aroma kann man irgendetwas erwähnenswertes finden. Kein Wunder, dass das Zeug in so großen Flaschen verkauft wird und man aufs Rücklabel verzichtet. Das hat man davon, wenn man in Thailand noch schnell Bier im 7/11 kauft.

330ml can "enjoyed" in a hotel room in Phuket. Pours very pale yellow with a soapy white head. Aroma of corn and rice. Taste is similar plus metallic notes. This is the worst Thai lager I've tried.

Dieses Bier hat mir mein ehemaliger Mitbewohner von einer Thailandreise mitgebracht mit der Bemerkung, dass es nicht so einfach zu bekommen war, da überall nur das auch in Mitteleuropa erhältliche Chang und Singha, zverfügbar war. Ein Kontrollblick in Wikipedia zeigt dann, frei zitiert " Thai Beverages sells Archa, a mass-market, non-premium lager" -gut, also probieren wir das Teil einmal. Erster Eindruck: "Pfui Teufel, was ist denn das!" Aber man will ja nicht voreilig urteilen und quält sich einen neuen Schluck hinunter: "Nein, das Zeug wird nicht besser!"...also hier meine Meinung: Wenn man schon in Thailand heimisches (immerhin sollte man ja an die CO2-Bilanz achten) Bier trinken will, sollte man sich an die Lokalmatatoren Chang und SIngha wenden. Die sind zwar auch nicht besonders, aber immerhin trinkbarer. Vom Archa würde ich auf jeden Fall abraten.

Poured from a can while in Thailand. Aroma is sweet with medium light grain and corn notes. A light floral hop aroma. No diacetyl or sulfur but some floral esters. Pours a very clear pale yellow gold with a medium sized, moderately thick white head with really good retention. Light lacing and no legs. Flavor has a sweet, pilsner malt graininess and hints of corn. Some floral hop character, light but surprisingly noticeable. Low bitterness compared to the hop flavor. Mouthfeel is light bodied with medium carbonation. Low astringency and low to no alcohol warmth. Overall one of the best lagers I have ha in Thailand. It still has all the typical malt characteristics of a light lager, but the hop character is more noticeable than I expected. It is also a clean beer without diacetyl or sulfur. ---Rated via Beer Buddy for iPhone
