You know Shizuka is feeling good when she says “It’s so freaking good”. Being able to host and not skip a beat on these drinking episodes is example of a true professional.
Love you guys! Shizuka you’re a master at being a host!! I know it’s not the focus of the channel but man a mini series on things to do in Tokyo would be sooo awesome! Could call it Japan by Foot 😉
I've added some beer spots to my saved Maps locations, thanks! The last bar definitely has the best and most authentic pour in my opinion. Fast and naturally foamed straight on the beer dripping mat, that's how I like it! Depending on your preference I'd say use thin edged glass for a crisp experience and thicker round edged glass for the smoother entry.
Gosh, I really, really enjoyed this segment of Japan by Food, love to know the unique beer culture in Japan. Gosh, I hope one day soon I get to discover and enjoy the unique beer culture of Japan!! Thank you and great work, Shizuka and Kai.
Its interesting the different pouring methods in Japan with plenty of foam. If you poured a beer in Australia with that much foam the drinkers would be yelling and screaming. Australian like our beer glass to be quite full with only about a quarter of an inch of foam on top, we like to get our moneys worth…lol.
The "shot" glass you mentioned is a typical beer glass for Kölsch beer. They call it ein Stage (a pole or a rod). All the glasses have a 0.2l mark to make sure the foam does not start below that mark, making sure the customer gets 0.2 liters of beer and not too much foam. You mentioned it looks like a beaker. Other parts of germany deride this type of glass as test tubes. They say Kölners can only drink small amount off beer at a time
Intresting video about beer foam. Shizuka is a great host. But he background music makes it difficult to hear what they are saying. Please turn it down. I'm always learning something new watching this channel, Thank you
That Gun Free Zone sign threw me off 😂 seeing how it's banned for 99% of Japan population. That sign is as effective as it is in the US.....😂 no effect but helps you FEEL safe.
Wow, this segment about Japanese beer was really cool and interesting Shizuka! I've never ever heard about the bartender dunking the beer glass into a ice cold water. Man, I want to have a Japanese beer now! Kanpai!🍻
I heard a theory once that the fluffy head may be due to the CO2/Nitro mix theyre using and so that's probably why you'll almost never see a head like that in the US where CO2 % used is likely higher. Also the real Matsuo pour looked nothing like that one.
Shizuka was right in her element at the dry dock 🍻and i noticed she had a great navy themed dress worn as well 👗💝💗🍺 awesome episode japan by food team.
reminds me of one of the first videos I saw of Shizuka at a street food area when they poured her cup to the top and I guess the preferred method was to bend down to sip it, gonna go look for that one, these locations look like so much fun though, I do love smooth beer and cutlets
This is why I love Japanese people. They are so worldly. Mr. Sato went all the way to the Czech Republic just to learn the best beer pouring technique. You'll be lucky to be served simple cold beer, here in Canada. It's almost always warm. 🤢
@@aznzensation that's the thing. We Canadians, as a whole, are satisfied with just "semi decent". We don't demand or strive for "great" or "the best we can do it/make it", which is why our products, services, and general infrastructure are so mediocre.
This was so interesting to watch (and learn about Japanese Beer Foam?? Who knew?)....also, Girl Friend, at about 21.30 I realized you are properly buzzed! Kanpai!
Someone I know recently combined Maple Syrup & buttered Popcorn thinking it would taste like caramel popcorn. It didn’t and they don’t recommend anyone else do it either.
Great video Shizuka and Kai! Did you know menchi was introduced by the Portuguese many many years ago when Japan first opened its borders? The name just means "mince" haha!
Thank you for posting this. I needed something to cheer me up since I got food poisoning last night and I've been spending my birthday today in bed because I feel like garbage
There is a Japanese-style lager that’s featured at my local micro-brewery called “Gaijin Dream.” It’s terribly well-balanced, with just a hint of something citrus at the back-end. If you ever find yourself in Oregon, I’ll buy the first round. 🍻🇯🇵🙇♂️
