Sapporo Beer Museum


If you love beer, you should visit the brewery in Japan. You get a learn more about how the beers are made, and see some vintage advertising which are really cool. In this post, I'll show you a little bit on what you can expect to find inside the Sapporo Beer Museum. 


The first thing you see when you enter the museum, is a dark cold room which used to be the brewery. Here you can see all the bronze/copper materials and equipment used to brew the beer. You will also see the above stained glass with the sunlight coming in. Stained glass always get a special mention in my blog cause I have a soft spot for them :)


Some of the interesting things you will see and learn from the museum is the history of Sapporo beer. Above is the timeline of the beer story dating back to the 1870s! Interestingly, Sapporo is not my favourite Japanese Beer. I personally prefer Kirin or Yebisu. And it is so difficult to get Yebisu in Singapore!


You can also see the old packaging of the Sapporo Beer, and where it was exported to and its branding.


The story of how Nippon Beer was being promoted through out the era. 


View lovely posters of Japanese ladies in beer ad. These are like vintage print, so it's worth a view if you love retro stuff like that. 


The drinking men was my favourite cause I think this look so comical. The wording says: Nippon Beer, Spring is here! And you can almost imagine the guy drinking the beer is 4 sequence in slow motion! lol. 


Any cool wording also gets special mention on this blog. 


And lastly, for whatever reason, doesn't the above photo reminds you of a scene in Omens? Or maybe some wester horror movie? Yeah, just felt like leaving it here. Just imagine that outside is a solemn graveyard in winter....
