50 Beers From Around the Globe- Sapporo (Japan)




We learned while researching this post that there is actually a Sapporo Beer Museum in Sapporo, Japan!

You may be able to find this Japanese brew at The Banana Cabana in Isle of Palms, SC (Charleston) or at The Grenwich Grill in New York, which supposedly also has great sushi! We don't reside in either area, but they do seem like cool places.

SIDEBAR: Unless you are a night owl like myself, you want to set the TiVo to tape the original vintage early 1970's version of "Shaft" with Richard Roundtree. It airs at (double yikes!) 2:15 a.m. on Saturday on TCM. Roundtree was kind enough to exchange emails with me several years ago. He is alive and well at age 68 today. Samuel L. Jackson played Shaft in a remake of the film. The original "Shaft" is one of the films discussed in an excellent article about blaxpotation films in the current issue of the Canadian film magazine "Cine Action."
