Yebisu's dark beer is the most common dark beer among the rest of the Japanese beer producers. I had my first taste of it at a yakitori restaurant at Ebisu (yes, their names are the same), a small high end district in Tokyo. Of course the experience of drinking it here at home is vastly different with the exclusion of good food and company. Here in Singapore, this beer is also not so common. In fact, I bought it at Meidi-ya at Liang Court and don't recall seeing it anywhere else. As expected from a dark beer, it has a roasty/smoky taste to it. It won't replace the normal ale/lager as an everyday beer but its nice to have a different beer once in a while. In fact it does make you feel manly!
