“Freethinker” Cedar Park, 2023
Mariko went to a brewery with a friend today and brought back this bottle of Freethinker beer. How did she know I was a freethinker?! 😂
Oh, the beer was delicious!

Hand-Delivered Kirin
“Hand Delivered” Cedar Park, 2023
Carrying on the tradition of bringing home beer from distant travels, Mariko gifted me a can of Kirin. It was delicious!! The classic design is so beautiful.
Matcha Beer
“Matcha Beer” Cedar Park, 2023
This evening, Mariko and I shared a bottle of matcha IPA beer from Kizakura Saké Brewing Company. It was delicious, with just a hint of matcha flavor. I was worried it would be overpowering, but I thought it was just right… 😋
Beer Garden
“Beer Garden Goodies” Austin, 2023
We went to a “beer garden” event today at a friends restaurant. It wasn’t outdoors (so hot!), but we enjoyed yummy beer from Kyoto, handmade onigiri, and delicious Japanese izakaya-style food. What a nice way to spend a Sunday afternoon. Cheers!
Bringing Home Food from Vacation
“Beer from Indy” Cedar Park, 2022
I never used to bring home food from vacation, except for maybe omiyage (gifts) for others. However, Mariko always does lots of shopping for local foods, and bring them home to enjoy and now I am starting to really appreciate that.
So, packing light in order to have more space in the luggage for goodies is a thing for me. On the latest trip, I brought back several cans of local beer. And let me tell you, the extra effort in bringing it home made it made it much tastier!
