## About

Began as the Kaitakushi Brewery of the Hokkaido Development Commission in Sapporo: the Germany-trained Seibei Nakagawa became brewmaster in June 1876 and the first lager was brewed when the plant was finished in September 1876. Privatised in 1886 and merged into Dai Nippon Beer in 1906; the Nippon Beer Brewery (Yebisu Beer, started at Mita, Tokyo, in 1887) came out of the split of 1949 and took the name Sapporo Breweries in 1964. Brands: Sapporo Black Label (1977) and Yebisu; five breweries in Japan (Sendai, Shizuoka, Chiba, Hokkaido, Kyushu).
