Now That's TOO Small

Img_0627In Japan, small is often better. You've heard of the famously small Japanese cars, Japanese apartments, and Japanese food portions (the latter of which are especially hard on Americans). After being here a bit, I'm inclined to agree that small can often be better. Smaller cars are better for the environment. Smaller apartments are cozy and cost less to heat. Smaller portions? I've already lost 10 pounds.

Now I find that Japan even has small beer. Like the smaller Coke and Pepsi cans that have been appearing in America, Japan offers a number of its beer brands in these petite cans. In the picture to the right I've got Asahi Style Free (which is inexplicably both style free and possessing of a "Refreshing new style") and Kirin. I tend to like my beer in bigger containers but I'm willing to go along with this minimizing of alcohol containers.

To a point.

That, my friends, is 135ml of beer. A shot of beer in a can.

Yes, there is such a thing as too small.
