Leo Beer
Brewed by Boon Rawd Brewery
Style: Pale Lager
Bangkok, Thailand
Made by Boon Rawd Brewery, a well-known Thai brewery and beverage company founded by entrepreneur Phraya Bhirom Bhakdi (Boonrawd Sreshthaputra, his birth name), the county’s first brewery. Boonrawd toured Germany and Denmark to learn how beer was made. On his return, he constructed his brewery in 1933, and the first bottles rolled off the assembly line in 1934. The brewery remains under the management of his descendants, who use Bhirom Bhakdi as their family name.
The Garuda on the bottle’s neck of their Singha brand shows Boonrawd Brewery’s royal approval, which is granted only to companies with a long-standing favorable reputation. It received this on 25 October 1939, by a royal warrant signed by King Rama VII’s Regent. Boon Rawd is the only brewery in Thailand to receive such a right.
The brewery produces a variety of beers, soft drinks and bottled drinking water and their best known product is the pale lager, Singha. Other well known brands include Leo, U, Snow, and Asahi. Roughly ten percent of its production is exported.
Review: 330ml bottle of Leo Beer: 5.0% vol.
In cans and bottles.
Leo Beer, very cool logo, it’s a leopard though and not a lion which is slightly confusing for me, since Leo is the star sign with the zodiac symbol of a lion, bit silly, unless it means something different in Asia. Says on the bottle that the major Thai beer conglomerate, Singha corporation co. Ltd, own this brew.
The colour is a pale golden yellow with a small white head, that does die a death very quick. Some carbonation and the general look is ok.
Lovely aroma on the nose, a nice beery smell, a little sweet but nice, even if its a little faint. Sweet corn, the hops and yeast and mild grains……
A lager taste is there for sure, but on the low level, watered down and with minimal hop presence. Light grains and that’s about it really.
Also a bit raw and a slight astringent aftertaste.
Not nice, no flavours and not smooth or crisp enough to be enjoyed. A nothing beer.
Rubbish beer, forgettable, tasteless, not enjoyable, I will pass on this……
Have tried Chang and Singha Premium and I have to say this is also a Thai beer that doesn’t do it for me. Perhaps it’s better in Thailand, but I can only go on what I get in the local off license and this beer is pretty tasteless, typical of Asian beers in general.
As a barman and manager of a small bar in Basel, North Switzerland, Fabian could get a birds eye view of the US craft beer imports and see what made them click with consumers. He started to create a few of his own beers with highly aromatic hops and made with innovative brewing techniques such as dry hopping. He worked from an empty kitchen hence the name of the brewery……Kitchen Brew! His customers were kind of like his guinea pigs, testing his new beers and seeing if North American craft beer trends could catch on in this part of the world. 
Bought in Swiss supermarket Coop, bottle comes with nice big lettering which stands out, showing that sometimes simplicity does work, no flashy logos or silly imagery, plain and simple, I like that. Calls itself a Swiss craft bier.
The initial taste is one of a lagery feel, wheaty and all the hops detected. 
Established in 2014, in the centre of Budapest, Hungary, Monyo Brewing Company set about creating one of the countries craft beer revolutions, a new wave of brewing. Founded by friends Pein Ádám and Németh Anti, both sick of the stale beer scene in the capital at the time, decided to do something about it, first by trying out some home brews with their friends, then, by contract, playing around with their own recipes in various more established breweries in the country. Over time their beers were becoming madly popular. They both finally went all in and took their assets and energy and they built MONYO Brewing. The goal in the first minute was the same as today: the production of uncompromising beers for consumers.
For the appearance I get a decent sized white head and a dark amber looking beer. Not a bad looking beer, with a good head on the pour but it does die a quick death.
In 1935, Kenya Brewing Limited acquired Tanganyika Breweries and in 1936 these two companies were merged leading to the creation of the East African Breweries Limited.
Tusker is brewed from 100% African ingredients that are all locally sourced: the barley grown in The Great Rift Valley and the spring water is from the Aberdare Mountains. 
On pour I get the standard lagery look, creamy white head that looks good on the pour but fizzles out quick, and a light golden coloured beer. Just the look of a regular lager, ok
