Singha is the Thai name for the Rajasi, a mythical lion with flames burning on it's head, neck and back, and trailing from each of its feet. This mythical ‘king of this enchanted forest’ is a truly magnificent creature. Courageous and fearless, this legendary “braveheart” is elegant in its posture, poetic in its movements and strong in its character. These qualities thus translate into Singha Lager.

Since 1933, Singha Lager - famous as “the original Thai beer” - has been quenching the thirst of beer drinkers in all corners of the world. The distinctive, full-bodied 100% barley malt beer is brewed only from the finest ingredients using state-of-the-art technology. It is rich in taste with a strong “Saaz” hop character - an aroma and flavor that is mild and earthly, filled with herbs and spice.
