From that site...
One of the most asked questions regarding home brewing in Thailand is 'IS IT LEGAL?'
In a nutshell 'NO'. It is illegal to home-brew alcohol whether it is fermented or distilled for personal consumption / sale.
***The law was updated in 2016. See below for details***
A new law passed by the National Legislative Assembly in December 2016 raised the maximum penalty for illegal production to 100,000 baht or a prison sentence of six months, or both. The maximum fine for selling illegal beer was raised to 50,000 baht.
This is a large increase to the 1950 liquors act which stated:
"Section 5 of the Liquors Act (1950) states that it is illegal for anyone to brew their own alcohol, or even have the equipment to do so.
The maximum penalty for contravention of this section of the Act is six months in jail, or a fine of 5,000 baht, or both.
If the offender sells the liquour, the maximum penalty rises to a year in jail or a 10,000 baht fine, or both.
Those are the maximum penalties and can be imposed for making and / or selling distilled alcohol (spirits).
The maximum penalties for brewing or fermenting alcohol - wine or beer, for example - are lower: 200 baht for making it and 5,000 baht for selling it.'

Break the law and you'd probably break the 100M record in the run to the hong naam while you were at it.
