I always stock up on beer when I'm in Phillipines. The painted bottle is the San Mig Pale Pilsen. It's the beer of choice for many in the Phils. It's also popular in Hong Kong and can be found throughout SE Asia. In addition to San Mig I like Red Horse. It's a bit strong but ok after you get past the first few gulps. Goes great with Happy Peanuts or Besuto Prawn Crackers!!! ^
Beer na Beer is ok. I've only had it in the can. It's more of a local product. Don't think I've ever seen it outside of Phils.
Anyone familiar with Ding Dong Mixed Nuts? Thats one of my favorite snack foods from Phils.
