Asahi Craft Grape Wilkinson
It’s amazing how many flavours this fizzy water comes in.
It’s equally amazing that, right now, I’m thinking about a guy I used to go to school with. His name was Guy(…brush?) Wilkinson, and we always had a good time at his place.
He had the biggest house, which was probably a mill back in the day, and we played Mega Drive on the largest telly! Road Rash 2… and Toejam & Earl 2!
Absolutely top-tier stuff.

I’m not entirely sure what kind of tangent I’m on here, but this fizzy water has the flavour of Toejam & Earl 2.
Ultimately, though, it feels like you’re drinking… NOTHING. It’s like fizzy air.
Bought for ¥119, tax included. No complaints here. It’s fizzy water, it tastes alright, and it hasn’t tried to ruin my afternoon. What more do you want?
THE VERDICT
TASTE: 4/5 – It’s alright.
VALUE: 4/5 – It’s essentially water. Slightly fancy water, but water.
BAD DECISION: 0/5 – A perfectly sensible beverage. What is happening to us?
BDJ SCORE: 4/5 – This is Toejam, but I wanted Earl.
