Click on the button above it to listen to the news! It's a robot voice, but from what I heard, there was no problem with the reading.

Yebisu beer speciality bar in Kyoto

Does anyone here like beer? I like Yebisu beer the best. What is Yebis? Yebisu is the name of this god. He is the god of good fortune who brings prosperity in fishing and business. Yebisu Bar Kyoto Yodobashi  In front of Kyoto station, there is a Yebisu beer speciality bar. In this bar, we can enjoy some kind of Yebisu beer. Here is the menu. There are so many different kinds, it's hard to decide. I chose one based on the chart for acidity and richness. It looked so good that I forgot to take a picture and just took a sip.😂 The beer foam is fine and delicious! Yebisu floated up from the coaster after I enjoyed beer.💕 There is an Yebisu figurine at the counter. . If you look closely, you'll see that Ebisu is holding a beer!

When I hear the sound of insects on an autumn night, I feel a sense of peace along with the thought of being released from the heat. There is a famous nursery rhyme in Japan. 🎶🎶🎶 https://youtu.be/8RUy2xSHrks 虫(むし)のこえ 1. あれ松虫(まつむし)が 鳴いている ちんちろ ちんちろ ちんちろりん あれ鈴虫(すずむし)も 鳴き出した りんりんりんりん りいんりん 秋の夜長(よなが)を 鳴き通す ああおもしろい 虫のこえ Listen!
