Sapporo — it’s more than just a name on a beer

Sapporo — it’s more than just a name on a beer bottle.
This northern city is where it all began back in 1876, when Japan’s first beer factory opened right here. 🍺✨

Today, the Sapporo Factory stands on those same historic grounds — part museum, part shopping mall, part bar — where you can sip, learn, and feel the history of Japan’s brewing culture.

Cheers to where it all started. 🍻
