Mopet Motorcycle

This kind of bike is popular among some people here. I heard there were some clubs in the Bay Area. They get together and go around San Francisco. It sounds fun!

Shonen Jump & Shojo Beal

Liqueur? Super Blue?

I thought this was beer when I had it. It wasn't beer. It wasn't happoushu. It says "Liqueur rui" or "a kind of liqueur" on the can. Is it in the same category as Vodka is?
