Blue Beer Crash
The Japanese text on the bottom of the left image says: Sapporo (Draft) Black Label beer. I can't tell what the four characters under 生 are though. (Too blurry for me to figure out.)
Edit: those characters might be 非熱処理 -- meaning unpasteurized.
Yes but how does it taste
It’s a pretty popular beer in Japan. Many people I know love it (not a beer drinker myself). I’d imagine you can probably get it wherever you live, too.
Wonder if they used to sell these at Michaelsoft Binbows
I... Kinda want one of those. Not to drink it, but to put it on my shelf and be like, "yeah, that's my Windows soda. I hear if you drink it you'll turn blue and die."
Tbh it might actually do that considering it's probably almost 30yrs old.
That would be your Windows beer
For the teetotalers: get Linux instead, for root beer.
