  1. Broken Remote says:

    Not Free.

  2. Rodney King says:

    MMMMMM…. I’d love to pay for free beer! It tastes much better that way!

  3. FIrst says:

    FIRST!!!

  4. Ryannon says:

    Beer First!

  5. drdestrukto says:

    since when is FREE BEER a fail?

  6. fake loz says:

    I’ll have a lager please.

    • fake loz says:

      *starts drinking*

    • Uhtred of Bebbanburg says:

      What, are you afraid you’ll taste something, Lager Boy? Ale RULES!!!!

      • mr s.a.u.s.a.g.e says:

        Baltic Porters – can you handle them?

        • Uhtred of Bebbanburg says:

          I’ve never met a Porter I couldn’t handle, but have never had a Baltic Porter. What’s it like? BTW: You’re not implying that a Porter is a Lager, are you?

          • Arrian says:

            I think he’s referring to the luggage handlers at hotels.

          • Of course not – Baltic Porters come from Imperial Stouts. They are rich in flavour and strong. Polish Porters like Zywiec or Lodzkie have got ca. 9% alcohol. Click on my name cause there are some things written about them;)

            • Uhtred of Bebbanburg says:

              Nice! I’ll have to find some. I brewed 5 gallons of my first attempt at a Barley Wine/Strong Ale a year and a half ago. It turned out at 9% ABV, thick, rich, malty, black as sin, and very hoppy. I’ve been sampling it every couple of months, but I’ve been letting it bottle-age. I’ll probably get into it in earnest this Christmas!

              Cheers, Mr. Sausage, from a fellow (real) beer lover!

              • mr s.a.u.s.a.g.e says:

                Well, never really considered brewing – maybe one day I’ll start;) Cheers!

                • dilettante says:

                  It’s not hard, you need a minimal amount of equipment to start, and the biggest issue is keeping everything sterile so you don’t get wild yeast in it, that results in either a good kwak or a dirty brew. You need a bottle-capper and a dishwasher, the rest is easily available. And it’ll taste like nothing else. Unfortunately the mash smells like burning pumpkin, but some people like it.

          • fake loz says:

            Baltic Porter is heavy, toasty and ring in around 10% ABV. Delicious but not a session beer …that sir, is why I ordered a lager.

      • thepowerofblue says:

        Ale your beers are belong to us.

  7. Lunchbox says:

    WTF, wordpoopzel??? I had a comment in the 1st spot, and it vanished! I was robbed!

  8. the roy says:

    Japanese Beer doesn’t even sound tasty.
    I’ll have a Newcastle, thank you

  9. Stallman says:

    To understand the concept, you should think of “free” as in “free speech,” not as in “free beer.”

  10. jayv says:

    Wow, value of the yen sure has gone down the tube, hasn’t it?

  11. dood says:

    For any curious, yes, the Japanese on the sign reads (literally, in English): “Free Beer.”

  12. alexander says:

    I think 500 yen equalz free, so when they have a thing that costs 1 yen, they will ask 501 yen for it!

  13. Slim Shammy says:

    Does it not say something like,
    Free Beer
    with meal ??
    500 yen
    Smoked Porter (steak?)
    Weizen
    Gold Lager

  14. Holo says:

    yeah but yens hardly worth anything anyway so it basicly is free

  15. odd32 says:

    Alcohol free then

  16. Munior says:

    I can’t see the “fail”!
    It is an offering to free the beer from its prison in the bottle.
    And for that extraordinary experience…. you pay 500 Yen.
    ;-)

  17. d00000d says:

    Fail on the OP! It’s free as in SPEECH.

  18. Toasty says:

    The 500 yen is for admission. Once you are admitted, all the free beer you can handle.

    Also, for some reason, “Smoked” is a flavour in Japan. I have no idea why. I guess this is just a smokey porter.

    Also also, the yen is very strong compared to the dollar right now. It has fallen recently, but nowhere near as far as the dollar has.

  19. JumpingBird says:

    Actually not a fail!
    It’s “free” like in “freedom” and not “free” like in gratis.
    Free Beer is the first open source Beer in the world, you can brew it on your own if you want to.
    Look it up in the Wikipedia!

  20. LightYear says:

    Light Beer? Free of calories & taste?

  21. Dallas says:

    I don’t drink alcohol! So this beer is totally free for me!

  22. Denis says:

    I made a comment about the free beer and was removed! Antispam fail!

    Anyway, search for freebeer dot org to know the open source recipe of the free beer.

  23. Meiao says:

    There is such a thing as not gratis Free Beer.

    http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Free_Beer
    http://www.freebeer.org/blog/

    They can charge whatever they want for Free Beer.
    Though you can have the recipe and make your own Free Beer.

  24. 4ndyman says:

    Actually, the beer is absolutely free. You gotta pay 500 yen for the bottle the beer comes in, though.

    I don’t understand how the “free” in “free beer” could be the same as the “free” in “free speech.” Does beer have a history of being repressed by the government of Japan? Has the government been considering enacting a law that gives all Japanese citizens the right to keep and bear ale?

    Perhaps the idea they really had in mind was Freedom Beer?

  25. theconley says:

    Also…Free Beer is Danish, not Japanese.

  26. H@wk says:

    Someone needs to loan them an interpreter

  27. YoNer says:

    Some else explained this in te comments….but i think it wont hurt to repeat.

    In some countries (like right here in Argentina) we have paid FREE stuff. We use the term Free = Libre as in “without restriction” or “all you can eat/drink” so Pizza Libre =Free Pizza would be “all-you-can-eat pizza”.

  28. Wolfram says:

    Free fail with purchase of fail of equal or greater value.

  29. Arthur says:

    This is not a fail. It’s just ironic. See http://freebeer.org/blog/archives/138

    It’s free as in free speech not as in free beer. There is lies the irony.

    • Laura says:

      Thanks for this!! I was about to correct all of these people. Free Beer is a movement. It’s a statement against copyright laws and is art as much as anything else. It can go for as much as several hundred dollars a bottle. It’s free as in freedom, not as in “here’s a beer for free”

  30. philipp Bühler says:

    in Reallife itz a beer you can brew by yourself and want to show how opensource works..just search Free beer in Wikipedia…

  31. H@wk says:

    FAILED!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

  32. raelalt says:

    I have a yen for free beer.

  33. thepowerofblue says:

    Play Free Beer’d!

  34. thepowerofblue says:

    Now we’re free…
    Free Failin’!

  35. blah says:

    You know, if you name your band “Free Beer”, no bar will ever hire you!

  36. Fish says:

    The beer is a lie!

  37. Laura says:

    Thanks for those few people who know what this actually is!! Free Beer is a movement. It’s a statement against copyright laws and is art as much as anything else. It can go for as much as several hundred dollars a bottle. It’s free as in freedom, not as in “here’s a beer for free”

    Look up “Superflex” and you can realize the amazing things they’re doing for the world.

  38. No such thing as a free lunch or a free beer it seems lol

  39. illegalfailien says:

    its free to anyone who donates 500yen to the cause of drunkness

  40. nevare says:

    Fail blog fail.

  41. joe says:

    this isn’t free as in “free beer” it’s free as in speech. Check out Freebeer.org

  42. MyBRizPr0 says:

    As they say… Nothing is Free.

  43. Anaetarircara says:

    sextir.com is a free porn site – We provide the world with free: porn videos,porn movies,xxx free movies,free porn,free sex.
    Best porn hub and tube on the web

  44. Lusepuster says:

    Actuallly Free Beer is a brand. Their gimmick is that the recipe is open. Everyone is free to copy it. That makes the beer free=libre, not free=no cost. Free as in free speech, not as in free beer… Only… You get it. Kthxbye

  45. Dole says:

    Hmmm… you guys may be retarded. The 500 Yen is for the listing below it, not the “free beer”.

  46. Dragon Guy says:

    That guy was drunk. That’s why.

  47. Rai says:

    This is not a fail…I belive that when they lack fail pictures, things start to random out and they end up with non-fail pictures like this.

    Free Beer is a worldwide movement that tends to create an “open source” standard for home based beer development. What they are selling as shown in the picture is the kit to develop some beers.

  48. trusts says:

    entrepreneurship doesn’t mean giving away things for free…
