On visiting Bali this summer, i was introduced to the famous Bintang beer. You can find it absolutely everywhere...Its simple design with the distinctive red star (which is what Bintang means in Indonesian) can be found in all the bars, restaurants and is printed on t- shirts, hats, swimming shorts and towels in all the shops and markets dotted around Bali. On returning to England, i even came across a facebook group devoted to the drink! You grow to love the stuff out there. Partly because it's so cheap and one of the few beers you can buy out there but also because there is nothing better than to sit on a beach, watching the sun setting whilst sipping a chilled bottle of Indonesia's finest!
I took this picture when i was on the Gili islands. A delivery had just come in from Bali on a small boat. The bright red crates were piled up on the beach which made such a statement.
