Have you ever been to Japan and tried some Japanese alcohol drinks?
now, I'm going to show you some popular drinks.
①Beer
Toriaezu biru basically means, “Let's start off with beer,” which is no surprise as beer tops the list of the most popular drinks in Japan. If you need a go-to drink in Japan, beer is a recommended starter especially if you are at an izakaya where it's popular to use this phrase. You can order nama biru, which is a draft beer, or bin biru which is a large, oftentimes half liter bottle of beer to be shared among people at the table. besides, there are some beer company in Japan, for example, ASAHI, KIRIN, SUNTORY, SAPPORO, ORION...and so on.
「とりあえず生で！」ついついスターターはビールにしちゃいますよね。たいてい生ビールで、なぜか瓶ビールの時もあります笑 私はアサヒスーパードライ好きです。
Like most everywhere else in the world, beer is an alcohol made from cereal grains, yeast, hops, and water. Beer was first introduced to Japan by Dutch merchants at Dejima, which was an island trading post from the time when Japan was more isolated.The country soon started importing beers after reopening to the outside world, and later Japanese started making their own. Today you can order beer at most bars and many restaurants, and there is also a craft beer movement happening. There is non-alcoholic beer available, as well as happoshu which is a low malt almost beer that exists as a cheaper alternative to real beer.
はじまりはあの出島だったんですね。それから輸入し始めて…。ずっと鎖国していたら日本の食文化はいったいどんなものになっていたんでしょう。私は糖質少なめの発泡酒を飲むことがあります。ダイエットです笑
②Syochu
Shochu, first made in the 1500s in Kyushu, is a distilled Japanese alcohol which is created starting with a fermented mash of water, yeast, and koji mold. Next, the crushed base ingredient is added to the mash and left to ferment. After this the mixture is distilled. Base ingredients can include mugi (barley), sweet potato, rice, sugarcane, buckwheat, or shiso which is a leaf from the mint family.
みなさんは焼酎飲みますか？私は芋派です。九州発祥で、いろんな種類がありますね。最近は蕎麦焼酎の蕎麦湯割りにハマっています。
Mugi shochu has a mild flavor and is good for beginners, while sweet potato shochu has a stronger flavor and can be consumed warm. Try buckwheat shochu for a mild but slightly bitter taste, or go slightly sweet with sugar cane shochu. Not unlike shiso itself, Shiso shochu has a soft flavor. Shochu is commonly consumed by itself, with ice, mixed with other drinks, warmed, or with water added. Mizuwari is alcohol mixed with water, and oyuwari is the warmed version of mizuwari.
麦はビギナー向けです。あまりくさくない。しかしそれゆえ物足りないってひとも多いはず。焼酎はロック、水割り、お湯割り、いろいろあって楽しいですよね。私はロック派ですが、クラブなどに行くと水割りでゆっくりさせられる気がしますｗ
I will write some articles about the other drinks...
