Japan Pavilion at Epcot to Serve Frozen Kirin Draft Beer

[Wendy]

Frozen Kirin draft beer is coming to the Japan Pavilion at Epcot. The beer is already a big hit in Tokyo, Japan, and sold at more than 650 locations. The only other place you can buy Frozen Kirin is the US in Honolulu.

You can find the frozen Kirin in the Garden House, the Kabuki Cafe and in the Tokyo Dining restaurant, says Bob Miller, dining operations manager for Mitsukoshi USA at Epcot.

For the record, it’s a light frozen topping made of beer that keeps the draft nice ‘n cold for about 30 minutes. The topping looks a little like ice cream – but it’s actually beer and tastes like beer.

“The guests were apprehensive, but very curious,” says Miller. “But once they try it, they often come back for another and bring their friends – it definitely makes the beer colder and keeps it colder longer, which is a good thing in the Florida sunshine.”

If you fancy giving this a try is will cost you $8.

Not sure how I would feel about frozen beer but might try it.

My wife had one at lunch at Tokoyo Dinning and loved it! It kept the beer cold during the whole meal!

We used to have shandy pops My brother and I used to love Bass shandy and so my dad put some shandy in our lolly maker and made us shandy lollies, from what I can remember they were delicious
