Specialities

Beer

Sapporo is the original producer of Japanese beer. The Frontier Beer Brewer, the first beer factory in Japan, was built by developers in 1876, and later it was sold to a private company. Locally produced beer is popular nowadays, and this is a good reason for beer lovers to visit this place.
