Pea in your beer?
It’s pathetic the way the Japanese tax system detiermnes how beer tastes. It is even more pathetic the way Japanese will buy pee (sic) beer because it is cheap. “Pee beer”…. I just can’t wrap my brain around that idea no matter how cheap it is to drink.
Beer…isn’t it? / Japanese drinkers develop a thirst for brews made of peas and beans
They look like beer, they smell like beer and they taste, well, not entirely unlike beer. But they’re made from peas or soybeans and, perhaps most importantly, they’re cheap. …. these so-called third-category beers take advantage of a preferential tax rate to deliver beerlike flavor without the price tag of a regular lager…
