Review

As we enter August of 2024, we are still experiencing extremely hot days with temperatures exceeding 35 degrees Celsius every day. In summer, there are many things to look forward to, such as Koshien and summer vacations, but what you really want on a sweltering hot day is beer! Beer outside in the heat is great, but beer while playing games in a cool space is also good! The " TOKYO VIDEO GAMERS " café and bar, a dream space for gamers with a video game concept, has collaborated with " Ghost in the Shell SAC " and "U. B.P. Brewery Craft Beer " to offer a new beer called " Ghost intheShell SACCraft Beer. Ghost in the Shell SAC Craft Beer ", a collaboration between Ghost in the Shell SAC and U.B.P Brewery Craft Beer, is now available for purchase.

Let's take a look at the "Ghost in the Shell SAC Craft Beer" in this review!




My ghost whispers to me to do so! Review of "Ghost in the Shell SAC Craft Beer"!

Ghost in the Shell SAC Craft Beer
Saiga NAK

I will be reviewing the "Ghost in the Shell SAC Craft Beer"! There are three types of beers in this collaboration: IPA, Pilsner, and Stout. The design of the packaging depicts Motoko Kusanagi, the main character of Ghost in the Shell, and other characters such as the "Laughing Man" and the AI-powered "Tachikoma" are also featured. This is a must-have for Ghost in the Shell fans.

"IPA."

The first beer is an IPA with a noisy Motoko Kusanagi. GHOST IN THE SHELL" is printed on it.

On the left side is a pop design of "Ghost in the Shell. The "Public Safety Section 9 -model-" to which Motoko Kusanagi belongs.

7.5% alc.

IPA" is 7.5% alcohol by volume and the malt is made in a foreign country.

"Pilsner".

Next is "Pilsner" with "Laughing Man" and "Tachikoma" on the front. The "Laughing Man" is drawn on one side of the package. It looks like there will be a "Laughing Man" incident!

Also on the side of the package is "Tachikoma" and "Case 081 of Wide Area Importance. The title of the sixth episode of the anime, "The Copycat Dances. Fans of "Laughing Man" should not miss this!

Pilsner" has an alcohol content of 4.5% and is malted in England and Germany.

"Stout".

The last one is "Stout" with "GHOST in the Shell" and "Motoko Kusanagi"! The background of the city at night is cool and cool!

Optical camouflage

Motoko Kusanagi is using optical camouflage to camouflage herself by using environmental images of her surroundings.

7.0% alcohol

Stout has a high alcohol content of 7.0%. It is a good way to camouflage yourself and hide your appearance!

What does it taste like?

Now that I've observed the packaging, which is full of attention to detail, I'd like to drink it!

Opening the package!

I love this moment when you grab the stay-on tab and open it...

Beautiful golden color

Kokkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkk!

I put them side by side!
Saiga NAK

Dane! I lined up the three types of beer. From left to right: "Pilsner", "Stout" and "IPA". Only "Stout" is a black beer.

Pilsner" has a nice malty aroma when you open it. It has the color of a white beer. The taste is refreshing and the alcohol content is low at 4.5%, making it easy to drink! It is a good introduction to craft beer.

Stout", a black beer, has a strong aroma when opened. The color is a darker black than Kohler, if I may say so. It has a strong, dark flavor and is very drinkable. The alcohol content is high at 7.0%.

The last one is "IPA". The color is a bright golden energy drink color. The taste is characterized by a punchy bitterness! The alcohol content is strong at 7.5%, so be careful not to drink too much.
