Asahi Beer Factory

Asahi Beer Factory in Hokkaido is one of the several factories for Japan's major beer producer, Asahi Beer. Asahi Beer is the leading producer among the four major beer companies in Japan, including Kirin, Sapporo, and Suntory. At the Asahi Beer Factory, visitors can join a comprehensive tour on the company's history. The tour includes a film on the history of Asahi Beer, an explanation and tour of the brewing process, and a beer tasting portion at the end. During the tour, ingredients and equipment used for brewing are featured in addition to the factory itself.

There is a small portion during the end of the tour designated for beer sampling. Asahi Beer Factory offers three kinds of beers for tourists to try, including their Asahi Super Dry, Asahi Super Dry - Dry Black, and Asahi Super Dry - Dry Premium. These are some of Asahi's top brews and are said to be the best to enjoy fresh at the brewery. The tasting portion also has non-alcoholic options for children and adults on the tour. In addition to a factory tour, travelers can purchase goods from the factory's store.
