Chimay is my favorite brew but they only have Grolsch here. It tastes Dutch-ish. How much
do I drink a week? Less than I' like to, more than I should. SMAP or non-alcoholic brew?
Neither. No way. Never.

I'm drinking Grolsch tonight, but Yebisu is my favorite. How much I drink depends on the
company I'm with but I'd say about a bottle a day. Listen to SMAP?

I am drinking Foster's from Australia but my favorite is one of the seasonal ales from
Portland, Oregon where I come from. I'd say I drink about a six-pack worth of beer a week.
Non-alcoholic beer or a lifetime of SMAP? Is suicide an option?

As Tokyo prepares for its long hot summer, there's nothing better than a chilled brew at
sundown to refresh the panting palate. Just the one... and the one for the road... well it
would be rude to refuse... oh, if you absolutely insist. So they came up with that
wonderful invention to keep us fresh for the morning after - non-alcoholic beer; surely a
contradiction in terms if ever there was one. Painful as it is: you have to choose: an
eternity listening to SMAP or an eternity drinking non-alcoholic beer. Which will it be?

My favorite beer is Stella or Giraffe - it's 7.3% and I drink... a lot! SMAP or
non-alcohol? I choose deafness.

We are drinking our favorite beer - yummy Bud by the bottle. How much do we drink a week?
Can't say - our jobs are on the line here! Non-alcoholic beer or SMAP? It's gotta be the
boyz.
