Museum of Yebisu Beer, Beer museum in Ebisu, Japan
The Museum of Yebisu Beer is a multi-floor facility within Ebisu Garden Place displaying brewing equipment, historical objects, and interactive presentations about beer production. The space walks visitors through each step of how the beer is made and how production has evolved.
Yebisu Beer production started in 1890 and the district of Ebisu was later named after the brand. The brewery's history shaped how this part of Tokyo developed over the following decades.
The museum reveals how Japanese brewers adopted German methods and created their own brewing identity over time. The exhibits and tools on display tell the story of this cultural exchange that shaped the beer itself.
Guided tours are offered in multiple languages and conclude with fresh beer tasting in the designated tasting area upstairs. Plan enough time to explore both the exhibits and enjoy the tasting experience.
The facility still operates a working micro-brewery where visitors can watch current production methods in action. This active brewing shows the direct difference between how beer was made in the past and how it is made today.
