Day two of Independence weekend headed to Bentong in Pahang for a beernic. Dats like a picnic. With beer. Crew of Joyce, Mad Max, Joleen, my bro Anil and Joleen’s mutt Brandy. Why does she call her dog Brandy when she hates brandy?
Anyway, stocked up on extra strong beers from Jaya Grocer and hit da road. There was a major variety – Damburger, Haywards, Hollandia, Godfather, Luxus and Franziskaner. And Pirate! Haha
Joyce rummages thru the bounty
My job was to keep Anil the driver well-fed..
..who had a permanent smile on his face
Found some kick-ass lemang with amazing lamb rendang by d highway. Might head there to just to get some more! Highly recommended. (There's signage. It's a few km before Genting exit)
Max cracks a cold one while Joyce digs into d lemang
We arrive at Chamang Falls, Bentong (pix by Joleen)
River-crossing with d booze stock
Happy duckies
Drink n swim - more fun than drink n drive
Posers. Joyce and tuak
There were a bunch of people BBQ-ing north of us on a little hill. I decide to check em out coz they look like Sarawakians.
Coz Sarawakians know how to party. And drink.
We get along like bros and hangout d rest of d day with them. They offer us food and booze, and we party! They were quite pleased when we offer them Joleen’s tuak and some bubbly.
They were well organized – there’s a CD player n speakers, and even patin fish! No langkau tho.

Havin an intense discussion with a dude called Valentine. Drinking-related of course. The idea is to take a swig of whisky, then chase with ice-cream soda
Fuckdatshit. Do 'em together
Dis shit should be renamed Russian Roulette. (Hmmm, both hands occupied, must have taken dis picture with my mouth)
Not sure what was goin on here with the bubbly. Some Sarawakian sacrifice
Probably bamboo fish. Good shit
Shut your dam mouth when u're being grilled, u patin
Basically, got totalled with our new friends.
Dont recall much bout the ‘driving back’ part.
Designated-driver senget, still with a smile on his face
