DELICIOUS BEER FROM JAPAN


This time let us talk about Japanese beer. Out of the corporate beers in Japan YEBISU is my favourite. The golden can is the most common but it is almost always the most expensive in a normal convenience store. The punks might laugh at you for investing more in beer and tell you you come across like a snob. I don't care. Recently I found out that the white can is even better than the silver one but it is also much harder to find. Here you can find the beers peacefully side by side in a great liquor store in Fukuoka, just down the road from the local Onsen I like to visit.

DELICIOUS SNACK FROM JAPAN PT. II


What about this? It is green tea flavoured KitKat. Might be enough for some to end their boycott of Nestle food products.

PUNK IS ALIVE AND WELL IN JAPAN Pt. 2


My friend Prof. Dr. hc. Martin found this billboard at the train station in Kurume (Kyushu, Japan). Thank you very much for submitting this! Besides the design I like the mix of "dermatological & mental" at this clinic and the fact there is no admission. How do the doctors and nurses at this place look like? Like punks? And yes, I think that Sid Vicious had a skin problem and was kinda mental.

PUNK IS ALIVE AND WELL IN JAPAN


As I was walking around Yokohama earlier this year I came past this great graffiti under a railway bridge. This has got to be one of the punkest pieces of art I have seen in a long time. What is going on in this picture? If you happen to know the master who created this AWESOME STENCIL ART, please definitely get in touch with me, I have an opening for cover artwork designer at the HeartFirst HQ.
