Beer is the most popular alcoholic beverage in Japan.
Four major companies are produing beers with fighting a fierce battle over its share in market.
Sapporo Black Label was found in northern city Sapporo in 1876, oldest beer in Japan. Famous for its North pole star.
Yebisu Beer was made in Tokyo in 1887. All malts beer. One of happy Gods Yebisu is on the can.
Kirin Lager Beer was made first in 1888. The figure of an imaginary animal Qilin is on the can. Used to be the most selling beer for a long time in Japan before Asahi Super Dry was launched in 1987.
I like Sapporo Black Label and Yebisu Beer, especially in its variant Silk Yebisu, which has a superb taste. Sometimes new attempt to come up with a new taste based heavily on its old finest tradition happens to produce unbelievably exquisite masterpiece as this one.
This taste is a bolt out of the blue.
