The second phase of McDonald's American Vintage promotion focuses on the 70's and features salsa burgers (Hot and Groovy Beef) and chicken sandwiches (Hot and Groovy Chicken). I don't really associate these with the 70's, but they do look good.

Suntory's Premium Malt's Dark is listed as a limited or seasonal product, but fortunately it seems to be available pretty often. On the website it give directions on two ways to mix this dark version with the regular version to create either white or dark bubbles. The trick is to create the desired color bubbles first by pouring either the regular or dark beer directly down the middle of the glass and then pour the other beer down the side of the glass.

This is a delicious looking addition to the Wendy's Japan Premium line. Italian cured ham and mozzarella cheese. Once again, the price is pretty steep for a fast food chain.

I have met many Japanese who like to mix dark and light beers for an intermediate taste. Occasionally, Japanese beer companies come out with beers, usually seasonal, to meet this demand. This offering from Suntory is different in that they claim it not only to be a blend of its Malt's and Dark Malt's beers, but a special process has been developed to optimize the taste by further brewing the mixture and then filtering it.
