ANA’s New In-Flight Draft-Beer Service

The airline ANA are doing their best to make flying less tedious- as of July 20th, draft beer will be available on some of their domestic flights!
As Japan Probe has discovered, apparently they are the first airline to ever offer beer out of kegs.
The toliet queues will be worse, but the in-flight romantic comedies and episodes of Mr Bean might actually become watchable!
The catch is- they only offer 20 glasses of beer on each flight. So what am I going to drink for the other half of the journey?!

Now I like that idea, draft beer on a plane. This would be even better if served on flights to Las Vegas.

This is such a great idea! but why the 20 beer cap? That seems a bit unreasonable…. Ashley, Travel Onion

Groovy Tokyo Bars February 22, 2012

The Guardian have printed a list of trendy bars and clubs to check out in Tokyo. A nice variety of watering holes are featured in the article, and I can vouch for most of them, especially the brew pubs and whiskey bars, although I have yet to try Stand S’s “mojito beer”, which sounds like [...]

Japanese Booze News: Feb 2012 February 9, 2012

A nicely-named bar in Sannomiya, Kobe. Hi, pals. Since this blog seems to get more traffic now than when I was actually writing it, I may as well start posting again. One afternoon a couple of weeks ago, 63,000 people checked out a story I wrote 3 years ago. It’s a bit like everyone buying [...]

Definitive List of Tokyo’s Beer Gardens July 20, 2011

Tokyo’s balmy summer evenings are perfect for a bit of outdoor beer-imbibing (except when there’s a bloody typhoon like today.) Where better to enjoy it than on the top of a skyscraper, under the stars? (you can’t see actually any stars, but you can achieve the same effect by signing up for an all-you-can drink [...]

I’ve finally put a new comic strip up on my other site, Little in Japan, after tons of slacking, procrastination, dealing with a high-maintenance woman, boozing, and hob-nobbing at parties.

Hilarious T-Shirts from T-Shitsu July 11, 2011

Rainy season is officially over, and it’s time for me to stock up on some new threads to sweat all over during the “super cool biz” summer.

Hello, and thanks for reading another of my increasingly infrequent missives!
