#InternationalBeerDay

It’s not like beer aficionados need an excuse, but today just so happens to be International Beer Day - so cheers big ears, beer it is for the Word of the Week! 🍺

.

「ビ－ル」(pronounced ‘bee-ru’ meaning ‘beer’) and 「生ビ－ル」(pronounced ‘nama bee-ru’ meaning ‘draught beer’) are some of the most popular alcoholic beverage choices here in Japan🍻

.

A couple of different onomatopoeia to describe the sound of someone drinking heartily are 「グビグビ」(‘gubi gubi’)「ゴクゴク」(‘goku goku’)

.

On the last slide we have an photo of one of Japan's favourite food pairings for beer - #yakitori - what do you like nibbling on if you're having a beer?
