Guests can now purchase a 'Frozen Draft Beer', also known as the 'Frozen Kirin' at the Garden House, the Kabuki Cafe and Tokyo Dining, at Epcot's Japan Pavilion.

Frozen Kirin Draft Beer

The drink is a popular summer time drink in Japan, and can now be purchased at Epcot for just $8. The Disney Parks Blog had this to say:

Already a hit in Tokyo, Japan, and sold at more than 650 locations, you’ll find the frozen Kirin in the Garden House, the Kabuki Cafe and in the Tokyo Dining restaurant, says Bob Miller, dining operations manager for Mitsukoshi USA at Epcot.

For the record, it’s a light frozen topping made of beer that keeps the draft nice ‘n cold for about 30 minutes. The topping looks a little like ice cream – but it’s actually beer and tastes like beer.

“The guests were apprehensive, but very curious,” says Miller. “But once they try it, they often come back for another and bring their friends – it definitely makes the beer colder and keeps it colder longer, which is a good thing in the Florida sunshine.”
