Where: Tokyo, Japan

Japanese super brew Asahi is coming out with a new beer that continues fermenting even after its been bottled. The Asahi Super Yeast Draft's (hm, we might recommend rethinking the word 'yeast' in the name) flavor changes after 2-3 months, if it's left unopened and stored around 60 degrees. This is supposed to contribute to a smoother, more abundant flavor. Yum.

The new beer will be introduced in Eastern Japan first this winter.
