LOL! Nevermind then!

I sucked at math. And science. The only things I was good at was English, history, and art. I guess I couldn't wear anything off my belt...maybe a protractor? :hehe:

But there's a new nick-name for BMW...calculator man, haha.

Math in the food thread?

C'mon now.

Makes sense, economics-wise, else the beer from Japan would be too expensive to compete, I think.

Yeah exactly..just like Japanese and German car factory plants here in the states...

There are a few beers @ Mitsuwa that you might find that are still brewed in Japan: Orion and Echigo.

The Asahi Tallboy cans at Mitsuwa or Marukai, that are basically 33 ounces or almost 3 regular cans in one big can....these tallboys are actually brewed by Asahi in Tokyo. You can read it right on the can.

Heh, do people actually read the labels on the can? :beaten:

Nope! :hehe: I'm usually a zombie when I shop because I work so much. I'll probably go to Nihonmachi tomorrow though...maybe I'll look at labels.

Wow, you're bored. :beaten:

Well ever since they stopped selling Ebisu beer here (made by Sapporo) I took note of where the beer is actually made. Ebisu was renamed Sapporo Reserve in N. America but is still made in Canada. One time my friend went to Japan while he was studying abroad in Shanghai and he mailed me some Ebisu :)

LOL. :hehe:

What brand would Japanese dark beer be? Usually I don't care for lager. I need the stuff that looks like mud.

hehe.....

I'm not saying the Japanese beers brewed in N. America are bad....but maybe like the electronics...they keep the best stuff from leaving Japanese shores.

Looks like I'm having dinner with my cousin tonight at King's Hawaiian... Not my choice of restaurant, but it'll be good to see her, since she lives in Virginia...

I made that suggestion.... No dice.

Surprising, since she lived in Japan for a couple of years... Twice. :headscratch:
