A Special Museum
If you are in Sapporo it’s worth visiting the beer museum. It’s not an active brewery (like I mistakenly thought) just a museum, restaurants, and gift shop.
The tour they offer tends to fill up so making a reservation is a good idea. There are 2 types of tours a guided “premium” tour and one where you just walk through the museum. The premium offers a tour guide (Japanese only), a short film about Sapporo Beer’s creation and early history, and some free beers at the end of the tour (pictures included). One high-point is that you are given a glass of beer that you can only get from the museum tour. It is made the same way as Sapporo beer used to made; in a more traditional German style.
I didn’t time the tour but it is short. Start to finish it was roughly 20-30 mins. It is interesting to see everything they have but I have been on more impactful beer tours. There was very limited English guidance during the tour (none spoken and only subtitles to displays, no explanations) so have someone to help you or strong Japanese ability. However, it seemed like there was supposed to be English translations at each picture but when I went the areas for them were empty.
I didn’t get a chance to eat at the restaurants but they looked good.
The gift shop is small but there is a nice selection of shirts, beers, and other gifts.
Must visit place in Hokkaido!
Japan’s only museum dedicated to beer, which explores the long history of Sapporo Beer (since 1876).
Star Hall(paid tasting corner): I highly recommend to go for the "three drink tasting set". One of which is Hokkaido exclusive.
Museum shop for exclusive Sapporo Beer merchandise. It has three restaurants (I guess prior reservation is required).
Very good museum, had lots of information to browse and learn about, and highly well-maintained. Good visit! I would definitely recommend the tasting set, just because it was interesting to be able to try the three different kinds of beer. I will mention that this is a relatively small museum that won’t take up a lot of time, but it’s still somewhere worth going, as it seems culturally significant being the Sapporo Beer Museum set in Sapporo itself.
