Reblogging Japan - Beer For Kids
The best things I’ve found on other people’s blogs recently:
I found the picture above and more information about kodomo no nomimono kids’ beer on the kilian-nakamura.com blog and this myspace.com blog. Quite understandably the kids in the photos seem rather genki. Apart from the surly one in the top right of this photo who presumably just heard he’s missed last orders.
Another product that must also have been a hit with kids is ‘Bilk’, pictured on the left. Made by brewing beer from milk, Japan Probe has the full story.
Finally, continuing on the subject of beer, I also found this great photo of a frozen beer bottle that exploded in a freezer.
Check out these other beer-related articles: Slang Expression #5 - Turbo Shandy, Beer and the Mother Tongue, Beer In Japan - Part 1 and Beer In Japan - Part 2.

I guess so. Plus the education system in Japan is brutal, what with cram school lessons in the evening after regular schooling, club activities at the weekend, and endless entrance exams to contend with.

Awesome! Brits do the same but with real beer and Yanks teach their kids to shoot guns, so what’s the difference? Let the little consumers consume!!!
