Same here, @Faraday . . . but Archa's white gee-gee nearly threw me! An excellent quiz . . . being more into beer than trains! 

[Poolie]

Damn!! 2/5. Obviously not spending enough time in the flesh pots of Pattaya!

Got the Archa beer wrong

May be one of the worst beers I have ever had!

It was so bad I still remember where I bought it!

Funny you mention that. When I think back, I can remember the where and when of the worst beers I’ve ever bought:

Osaka Beer Festival 2008 (Israeli beer, can’t remember the name of it)

Boxing Day in Australia 2018 (tried three beers, all crap, switched to Asahi export)

Can’t remember the best ones luckily. Too many to count

Lived in Patong 2004

Went to 7-11 on Nanai Rd and the label caught my eye

So decided to give it a try

Just awful.......

Now my wife worst?

Probably at Whistler Mountain

Staying at a friend's house 

He left behind a beer called Hops

She didn't know what Hops was

Well she learned she doesn't like Hoppy beer!  :)

I’ve had Archa a few times, I don’t have any feelings one way or the other. Unlike the other four I mentioned. Jeepers creepers.

My wife has never tried beer, can’t even get her to take a sip. But she does have an encyclopedic knowledge of where the best and worst som tam is to be found

I must admit @Marc26 , when I read that line, I thought you were about to tell us the worst wife you’ve ever had

[Bertik]

Twas a no-brainer  5 from 5.   Not sure if scoring a 5 is a good thing or maybe not so good.

It is a good thing Bertik, it shows you are very observant especially when hovvering around the beer fridges in 7/11. But how in heavens name are we supposed to know how many elephants there are in Thailand like in the quiz we got the other week. You can be as observant as you like whilst driving around Thailand and count every effalump you encounter but you can be sure there will still be some of them hiding behind trees in the jungle. The only solution is to send the wife into the jungle and get her to shoo them out, I have mentioned this idea to the wife and she doesn't seem too keen on the idea though, always thinks of herself.

My wife is a boozer....

If we go out for a real night out, I will have 15+ beers

But I don't drink at home

My wife usually had 1 beer per day at home

I got her on Miller Lites 

She drinks Miller Lite and diet Canada Dry Ginger Ale mixed

Funny enough I drank(and drink) Kloster the 1st time I went to my wife's village

It's very popular in the main town there

I like Chang

My wife loves Leo(which I don't mind)
