Top 4 Japanese Beers for First-Time Visitors

Alcohol

Where I Bought It

I bought it at a supermarket called “LIFE” this time.
LIFE is a popular Japanese supermarket chain, operating mainly in urban areas like Tokyo and Osaka.
Even if you’re just visiting Japan, you can easily find tasty snacks and quality alcoholic drinks at local supermarkets like LIFE — often at more affordable prices than convenience stores.
