TAP also promotes the "Drink Don’t Drive" campaign in Chiang Mai and Chiang Rai provinces during the festive seasons including the Songkran festival and New Year holidays.

TAP Group is supporting education for youth by providing computers to support digital skills, improving the quality of life of communities around the brewery and following its concept of “Brewing a Better World”
