Ooh, yeah. Got to try them a while back when am/pm was carrying it for some reason. That's some nice stuff.

The best one I've had here was Hitachino Nest at the Craft Beer Festival last September. They had an espresso stout available there that was just excellent.

When it comes to the big guys, I'm a Sapporo drinker.

Even when times are rough, I would not bend to the happoshu crap. Hoppy, on the other hand is not too shabby.

Isn't Hoppy the name of one of Greji's 'friends'.
Japanese are, by the way the worst beer brand namers anywhere on the planet.

Can you explain Noriko to those of us who are newer around here? I've heard it/her mentioned, even in a beer thread.
Spare a drink? :cheers:

Noriko, has done everybody on the board except AO's closest buddy. Unfortunately, the original video is no longer here......But that thread endeared Noriko to the board and got her nominated to the FG Hall of Fame.

She expressed her appreciation by strapping on a random sampling of the members here, with the exception of Iraira, who thought it was a union meeting and didn't show.

A staff member from Japanese jewelry brand Ginza Tanaka pours beer into a solid gold tankard during a demonstration at its unveiling ceremony in Tokyo on Wednesday. The tankard, which is 13.5 cm tall, with a diameter of 10 cm and a weight of 850 grams, is worth 5 million yen.
