Orion won't float your boat, then．Since I was last in Okinawa, a number of craft brews have emerged. Can't speak to the taste, but look out for Nihede, for example. If you like hard liquor, try Awamori (distilled spirits). And for some local flavor without the hangover, enjoy Sanpin (jasmine tea)
The best (IMHO) snack with your drink is umi budo - a kind of seaweed that resembles grapes. Also, while you're there, you should enjoy Okinawan noodles and live music. Shurei Soba is supposed to offer both- call ahead to make sure:
