From the way Kaku begs Nakamura to take him out for a drink, you can clearly see the strong bond of trust between them.
The background music is a familiar instrumental arrangement of “Les Champs-Élysées.” In Japan, this famous chanson is known by the title “Au Champs-Élysées.”
Les Champs-Élysées
This commercial features Shinichi Tsutsumi and Haruka Fukuhara as a father and daughter, gently portraying them enjoying beer during cherry blossom season.
The father’s delighted gaze as he watches his daughter take a sip of beer, along with their ensuing conversation, conveys a sense of relaxation and warmth.
The song “Les Champs-Élysées” further accentuates the soft, gentle atmosphere depicted in the visuals.
Its melody, carried by the bright tones of brass instruments, radiates kindness through the expansiveness of its sound.
L-O-V-E (Arrangement)Mori Yuya
In this commercial, three members of Arashi climb tall poles to harvest hops.
The song used is the series’ staple, “L-O-V-E.” The three of them look close and playful like children, and the beer they get to drink as a reward.
It’s a commercial that makes you feel like you could enjoy your beer with an extra touch of freshness.
Twist & ShoutThe Beatles
This is a commercial that confidently showcases the distinctive taste of Kirin Ichiban Shibori White Beer.
The catchphrase “Another delicious beer” is used to highlight that it offers a different kind of deliciousness from typical beers.

New York, New York (arranged)Okada Mutsumi
A 2012 commercial for Kirin Ichiban Shibori Frozen Draft featuring Yu Aoi.
The beer foam is frozen, making it a perfect and fun choice for summer.
The music used is Mutsumi Okada’s “New York, New York.” It’s a commercial that conveys the joy of drinking beer with a fresh, new sensation!
Being young is wonderful (arranged)Miyakawa Tai
Here’s a refreshing commercial that shows an intense sandlot baseball game followed by a celebratory beer toast—arguably the best way to drink.
The music is Hiroshi Miyagawa’s “Wakai tte Subarashii” (“Youth Is Wonderful”), and like everyone playing in this pickup game, we’d love to keep both our workouts and our toasts youthful and full of fun!
L-O-V-E (Arrangement)Bert Kaempfert
This is a commercial from the Kirin Ichiban Shibori series where members of Arashi sample beers brewed in different regions, turning the pride of Japan’s 47 prefectures into delicious flavor.

This lively tune makes the joy of drinking beer even greater!
