Alright, let’s see here. I love beer. And I definitely love robots. So when I found out that Asahi has unveiled it’s very own beer serving robot (dutifully named Mr. Asahi), well, I started wondering if Asahi’s marketing guys had been sneaking into my apartment and reading my diary. Now, granted, Mr. Asahi will likely never be as great a bartender as Sam Malone, but those are some big shoes to fill. Hey, at least he won’t keep pestering me about leaving my keys after I’ve had 8 or 12 beers in a row* or about how I should stop staring at the waitress even though she’s already splashed two drinks in my face. I mean, geez. Really, so long as he is able to refill the pretzel bowl and tell a joke or two in addition to cracking open ice-cold Asahi, I think we’ll be good.

*Please note that New York-Tokyo does not endorse or encourage drinking and driving in any way. Have a safe 4th of July weekend.
