TeleSkier 0 Posted September 24, 2002 Share Posted September 24, 2002 Got to go with putting two grape talls down on the way to some Karoke. Security Guard came at 2am to kick us out. Guess it closed at midnight. Close second is between bars in Rappongi. Definitely takes the sting away from the Y1,000 drinks and helps me forget that I got a vacuum cleaner taken to my wallet the previous night. Link to post Share on other sites
lin 0 Posted September 24, 2002 Share Posted September 24, 2002 Whats that about TeleSkier?? Link to post Share on other sites
TeleSkier 0 Posted September 24, 2002 Author Share Posted September 24, 2002 Chu-Hi is this magical drink that you can get at most 7-11's, Lucky Charms, Circle K, AM/PM, etc for about Y200 a pop. Pretty much can take a party that starts in first gear and go right to fifth skipping 2-4. The only problem I have found out is the next morning is that some little guy is in my head going to work with a pogo stick for a few hours. Can't get the stuff back in the States, Europe???

Ocean11 0 Posted September 24, 2002 Share Posted September 24, 2002 The first time I fully came to understand the value proposition of Chu-Hi was standing on the platform at Yamashina station near Kyoto one cold night. Faced with purchasing a beer at 230 yen (5% alcohol) or a Chu-Hi at 160 yen (6% alcohol), it suddenly struck me that perhaps I had a bright future as an alcoholic ahead of me. A few months later, I realized that I prefer the taste of beer... Link to post Share on other sites
cal 6 Posted September 24, 2002 Share Posted September 24, 2002 I haven't had any recently, but when I did it sucked big time. Might be cheap, but. Link to post Share on other sites
Ocean11 0 Posted September 24, 2002 Share Posted September 24, 2002 Y1,000 drinks? You sophisticated Edokko have got it sussed, you really have... Link to post Share on other sites
echineko 1 Posted September 24, 2002 Share Posted September 24, 2002 There is some really yummy chu-hi now, I like it. It gets me drunk feeling Link to post Share on other sites
Wizz 11 Posted September 24, 2002 Share Posted September 24, 2002 Drinking a whole nights worth of them, getting blindingly drunk, getting off with a famously gorge babe. Best ever. Horrible stuff coming to think of it. Link to post Share on other sites
BagOfCrisps 24 Posted September 24, 2002 Share Posted September 24, 2002 What does this stuff taste like then, Japan dudes? Link to post Share on other sites
Ocean11 0 Posted September 24, 2002 Share Posted September 24, 2002 It tastes like something you could make with your chemistry set. Mix pure ethylene with water and an artificial fruit flavour of your own devising, pump in carbon dioxide, and you're ready to party. Cheers! Link to post Share on other sites
BagOfCrisps 24 Posted September 24, 2002 Share Posted September 24, 2002 Sounds great. Hey cheers for the ranking whoever did that! Link to post Share on other sites
Davo 1 Posted September 25, 2002 Share Posted September 25, 2002 My favorite chu-hi experience happened just tonight when I found the shop across the road had added 2 new flavours-grape & orange to their selection. Now I have five delicious flavors to choose from at 88yen a can. Life is good. Link to post Share on other sites

TeleSkier 0 Posted October 15, 2002 Author Share Posted October 15, 2002 Was up in Tokyo over the weekend with a few friends. Went to the 7-11 and checked out the fridge - new flavor of Chu-Hi Sour Apple. Stuff is dangerous. I could put down many of those talls in no time. I highly recommend!
