		<description><![CDATA[I'm a Sapporo beer fan. I prefer their brews to Asahi and Kirin, and generally rave about their special releases. So when I saw this on the shelf at my local convenience store, I approached it with an open mind. I like chocolate, I like beer, I like Sapporo. Therefore, I like this, right? right...?]]></description>
			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>It&#8217;s been a little quiet here at Nihonshock for a couple weeks. I haven&#8217;t forgotten about the blog at all, I&#8217;m just busy with a couple larger posts/projects for the site, so there has been a slowdown in posting. However, I went to Family Mart last night and spotted this easy post to help fill the gap.</p>
<p>I&#8217;m a Sapporo beer fan. I prefer their brews to Asahi and Kirin, and generally rave about their special releases. So when I saw this on the shelf at my local convenience store, I approached it with an open mind. I like chocolate, I like beer, I like Sapporo. Therefore, I like this, right? right&#8230;?</p>

<h2>Verdict</h2>
<p>I don&#8217;t know whose idea it was to spread the <a title="read my post about Azuki (sweet bean) Pepsi" href="http://nihonshock.com/2009/10/azuki-sweet-bean-peps/">ridiculous drink flavor wars</a> into the world of alcohol, but they should be punished. This was terrible, just terrible. I hate to waste alcohol, I really do, but the only place in the world for this is&#8230;.</p>

<p style="text-align: center;"><em>&#8230;down the drain</em>.</p>
<p style="text-align: center;">Good riddance.</p>
<h3 style="text-align: left;">Just noticed&#8230;</h3>
<p style="text-align: left;">Apparently this beer isn&#8217;t as new as I thought. I guess Sapporo <a href="http://www.mikesblender.com/indexblog206.htm">tried this last year too</a>. Maybe it&#8217;s a Valentine&#8217;s day thing?</p>
