This is sort of a pending review space, as I am trying to find out how to order this new beer brand. It's brewed by Kirin Brewery Company, a Japanese firm. I've heard whispers around the internet that the beer will be released in December 2008, though I have no idea if it will accessible in the United States, or if it will be seasonal only. If anyone has any more info on this very intriguing chocolate beer blend, please do contact me. To date I have tried other Kirin beer types, and was pleased with them, so naturally I would like to get my hands on their chocolate beer brand, as it would be the first chocolate beer I've tried out of Asia. I'm very much looking forward to tasting it, so I will keep you all posted as my search progresses.
