Perhap his Missus wouldn't have wanted a Disney wedding. But I digress.
The beer I just polished off while eating dinner is a Korean one, called
"OB"*. The "B" in "OB" stands for beer. I'll let you guess the "O". The
brewery (and presumably, the brand), was established in 1933, at a time
which any "sort of left-wing Japanese" doesn't look upon with particular
nostalgia.
