pie-eater 207 Posted August 28, 2014 Share Posted August 28, 2014 Do they only do cans of 琥珀ヱビス? Link to post Share on other sites
Thundercat 60 Posted August 28, 2014 Share Posted August 28, 2014 Yes, Kohaku = 琥珀. I've only ever seen cans. Back to work on the same day that Kohaku is released?? Can't be a coincidence! Link to post Share on other sites
pie-eater 207 Posted August 28, 2014 Share Posted August 28, 2014 That's a shame. I like bottles for my premier beer experience at home. But I will buy a box. Link to post Share on other sites

Thundercat 60 Posted August 28, 2014 Share Posted August 28, 2014 I've got a couple of glasses that came as a promotion when you buy a case. Haven't seen them in shops though. Link to post Share on other sites
r45 4 Posted August 28, 2014 Share Posted August 28, 2014 Whats the difference between this and the normal Ebisu beer? Anyone able to explain? Link to post Share on other sites
BagOfCrisps 24 Posted August 28, 2014 Share Posted August 28, 2014 Can someone send some of that over as well please. Cheers. Link to post Share on other sites
BagOfCrisps 24 Posted August 28, 2014 Share Posted August 28, 2014 Any particular reason why beers are released on a Tuesday? Link to post Share on other sites
Thundercat 60 Posted August 28, 2014 Share Posted August 28, 2014 Whats the difference between this and the normal Ebisu beer? Anyone able to explain? It's an amber ale so it uses different malts than a normal Ebisu. It's got a slightly sweet caramel flavour and a slightly bready / nutty kind of chewiness to it. In my opinion, it's the best macro brew beer in Japan. Of course there are better amber ales/lagers but then you pay craft beer / import price. Link to post Share on other sites
Tubby Beaver 209 Posted August 28, 2014 Share Posted August 28, 2014 Yeah.....regular Ebisu is a lager, this is an amber ale. Link to post Share on other sites

muikabochi 208 Posted August 31, 2014 Author Share Posted August 31, 2014 I'm going to buy a 6 pack of this Kohaku and see what it's like this year. Can't say I can tell any difference with the Akiaji this year. Still oishii for me. Link to post Share on other sites
