A Harbinger of Autumn! My First Kirin Akiaji of 2024

Sir,

While browsing the shelves of a refrigerated cabinet in my local 7-11 this afternoon I saw a faint hint of autumnal hues, which led me to say to myself, who was present and sober with me at the time, "Was that a 'Kirin Akiaji Biiru' (キリン秋味ビール) of which I caught a glimpse nestling behind the glass door of this here refrigerated cabinet?"

Almost immediately afterwards I opened the said door of the said refrigerated cabinet and beheld a double row of Kirin Akiaji Biiru in their full autumnal plumage, stacked five or six deep, I am not quite sure which. The time was 4.10pm, and the Kirin Akiaji Biiru appeared to be about 18 inches in front of my nose. There was not the slightest doubt that the species of Biiru was that of the Kirin Akiaji, which is to say, being interpreted, Kirin Autum Taste Beer, a migratory species and a refreshing harbinger of autumn that often arrives in these parts several weeks ahead of the onset of the season.

I collected several specimens for further inspection at my leisure this evening.

In the meantime I remain,

Your Faithful Servant,

David Hurley
