Скачать или смотреть How a Tiny Island Became Thailand’s Illegal Beer Haven

In this video, I travel to Ko Kret Island in Bangkok, a small fascinating spot that's become an unexpected hub for Thailand’s underground craft beer scene.

I meet with Wichit Saiklao, the pioneering founder of Chitbeer Bar, who’s been instrumental in legalizing beer making in Thailand. We talk about the challenges of brewing in a place where craft beer is illegal, and how Ko Kret became a refuge for the homebrewing community.

Along the way, I also explore the sights of Ko Kret, from riverside paths to beautiful temples. It’s more than just beer—this island is full of stories.
