Re: Krating Thong Beer calender poster
I do not wish to be argumentative. However I worked as a civilian contractor to the USAF from the mid 60's and the mid 70'. Kratingtong was never a favorite of US service personel or ex-pat contractors. It was always considered a low grade/low price subatitute for Singha or Amerit.
I was the only person I ever knew that drank the stuff on a regular basis..but then I'm no beer connoiseur. But it tasted just fine for me.
