Japanese Wildlife on Beer Labels Association

Unashamedly emulating the International Bird Beer Label Association (IBBLA) Facebook group, the Japanese Wildlife on Beer Labels Association (JWBLA) aims to collate images of brews that depict species found in the Japanese Archipelago.

Membership is purely honorary. If you would like to become a member you must:

1) Discover a previously unregistered species of beer with a bird, animal or plant shown on the label. (A new species is a beer not previously registered).

2) Photograph or scan the label and submit it to Japan Nature Guides (JNG) by email.

3) Send the original label (preferably still attached to a full bottle or can of the brew) to Japan Nature Guides (JNG) by mail.

That's it! Once we have received these details we will upload the images and add you to our role of associate members. What an honour!

So far this highly exclusive club has just two members. Find a beer with a bird or animal; join today, add JWBLA after your name!
