Sapporo Beer of Japan

Sapporo Breweries Limited has been around since 1876 and is the home brewery to a world known Japanese beer Sapporo.  The company has five breweries in Japan as well as a brewery in Canada making it relatively easy to grab a hold of one.  Sapporo is classified as a Japanese Rice Lager and is rated the number one Japanese beer.  The beer can be found in 12 ounce bottles, 12 ounce cans, and the classic 22 ounce tall boy.  The can is one of the amazing and signature parts of the beer, very unique.  The beer pours a beautiful clean golden with a large carbonation of bubbles.  You can smell the bready malts, apples and the light rice they use during the brewing process.  Sapporo is not a very hoppy beer and the taste is super crisp, clean, and light.  Some could compare Sapporo to the American Adjunct Lager which isn't bad.  So much goes into the brewing process at the Sapporo Brewery and that is why it is a Premium Brew.  The concept of Sapporo is to have something good, light, and a beer that will make you want to drink more and the Japanese definitely succeeded in this.
