Brewer's Background:

Sapporo traces its origins to Hokkaido, Japan, where it was founded in 1876 as the nation’s first brewery. Seibei Nakagawa, a trailblazing young man who defied government bans to train in Germany, returned to Japan to introduce advanced brewing techniques. That same spirit of innovation drives the brand today. With SAPPORO U.S.A. established in 1984, the brewery continues to uphold uncompromising quality and remains an emblem of Japanese craftsmanship in over 120 countries.

Serving Suggestions:

Serve Sapporo Premium Beer chilled at 38–42°F in a tall glass or its signature silver can. Enjoy it alongside sushi, grilled yakitori, ramen, tempura, or any umami-rich fare. Its refreshingly light bitterness and clean finish make it a perfect pairing for spicy dishes and savory snacks alike.

Sapporo Premium Beer, Japan is more than just a lager; it’s a global icon born of adventurous spirit and relentless dedication to quality, brewed to elevate every sip, every toast, and every table it graces.
