Extra info | Writing translates to Kirin Home Use Beer Iin 1943, as Japan realized it was in a long war with no certain victory in sight, the government decided to further mobilize and streamline the home front and economy (similar to Germany and its "Total War" mobilization around the same time). One of the things the government did was to mandate all beer producers to adopt simple, standardized labels and caps. Photo and history courtesy of Nikolay Gyulemetov | |
