snowdude 44 Posted April 22, 2014 Share Posted April 22, 2014 I just but six packs and chop and change, but never buy Asahi beers, they don't have any taste too them, like drinking knatts piss! Link to post Share on other sites
Error404 0 Posted April 23, 2014 Share Posted April 23, 2014 I love buying boxes of 24. Last one I got was the classic gold Ebisu. Very nice beer. Come to think of it, there's only about 6 or left, time to buy next box. Link to post Share on other sites
griller 9 Posted April 23, 2014 Share Posted April 23, 2014 Why don't people buy me crates of beer? Link to post Share on other sites
pie-eater 207 Posted April 23, 2014 Share Posted April 23, 2014 I thought I'd try a low calorie beer, as I hope to lose a few kg before my Summer Beer & Pies adventure. Mmmm, it's really not nice. Just about drinkable after a bath and very thirsty, but that's it. Link to post Share on other sites
NoFakie 45 Posted April 24, 2014 Share Posted April 24, 2014 DumbStick, on 21 April 2014 - 10:20 AM, said: Did you order the 100? Looks like they have sold out! No, but I did get another ten instore. I'd have bought more, but I'm guessing that the price might continue for a bit. Note that the 1698 one is 6.5% while the others are 4.5%, so I got five each of them. I can notice that kind of difference and quite like drinking more before I start feeling . I don't drink wine very often but I try to avoid 15% stuff for the same reason.

best skier in hakuba 5 Posted April 24, 2014 Share Posted April 24, 2014 A few 6 packs at a time, different kinds. Always have 2 or 3 different beers in the fridge. Link to post Share on other sites
BagOfCrisps 24 Posted April 24, 2014 Share Posted April 24, 2014 I have a dedicated beer section in my large fridge. There's always a selection of bottles and cans in there, up to 12 at any one time. The mood decides which one is taken out! Link to post Share on other sites
DumbStick 13 Posted April 24, 2014 Share Posted April 24, 2014 been drinking more recently. As I mentioned in the bath thread, a beer after a long hot bath is fab. Link to post Share on other sites

Karnidge 2 Posted April 25, 2014 Share Posted April 25, 2014 Here's a beer question. Want to take some back for my dad and brother in a few weeks and wondering what to take. I'm thinking Yebisu. What would you take? Link to post Share on other sites
pie-eater 207 Posted April 25, 2014 Share Posted April 25, 2014 I took some of that back last year and they really liked it. Link to post Share on other sites
pie-eater 207 Posted April 25, 2014 Share Posted April 25, 2014 This time take them something different! I should have said, I took mine back for my family not yours. Link to post Share on other sites
BagOfCrisps 24 Posted April 25, 2014 Share Posted April 25, 2014 Test me out... bring a few different beers back as a test run and I'll let you know what is good. Link to post Share on other sites
634-maru 4 Posted April 26, 2014 Share Posted April 26, 2014 had a good drive today Kusatsu > Shiga Kogen > Madarao Not the best of weather really, hazy. Got some Shiga Kogen beer and sipping on the Blonde one now. Very nice. But seriously, ji-biiru is just too expensive. 2 small bottles fill my (quite) big jokki glass. 700 yen.

muikabochi 208 Posted April 27, 2014 Author Share Posted April 27, 2014 Absolutely! Jibiiru is way too expensive. I would buy much more if it were cheaper. I don't know the cost of making the stuff, but I'm sure there's many more people like myself who would be more regular drinkers if it were more reasonably priced. Yuzawa Kogen beer, I used to like that. Way too expensive and the restaurant was just silly prices. Not surprising they gave up. I hope Hakkaisan continues because I like it. Still, only sometimes because I just feel I'm handing over too much cash when I buy it. I do like the Shiga Kogen one too. Link to post Share on other sites
snowbender 3 Posted April 27, 2014 Share Posted April 27, 2014 I was just looking. Online, the Shiga Kogen beer is just under 500 yen for one of the small bottles. Plus postage of course. Link to post Share on other sites
oo 1 Posted April 27, 2014 Share Posted April 27, 2014 Shiga Kogen one is I think my fave from the ones I have tried, Link to post Share on other sites
big-will 7 Posted April 28, 2014 Share Posted April 28, 2014 Wonder if it's just that it costs a fair bit to make the jibiiru, or whether they're just slapping on a ton of extra to the price? Link to post Share on other sites
Thundercat 60 Posted April 28, 2014 Share Posted April 28, 2014 The problem is the tax related to the ingredients that go into making it. There is almost a special licence that can be expensive. Link to post Share on other sites
Saitaman 1 Posted April 28, 2014 Share Posted April 28, 2014 Still I like it every now and again. Bit of a treat. Link to post Share on other sites
