KIRIN BREWERY COMPANY,LIMITED

The Japan Brewery Company, the forerunner to KIRIN, was established in 1885, and by 1888 they began brewing KIRIN. The market welcomed KIRIN, recognizing the beer's authentic German brewmasters who used German ingredients. In 1907, the Japan Brewery Company changed its name to KIRIN Brewery, continuing its high standards in securing the best malt and hops and investing in facilities... We're dedicated to our people and our communities. We're dedicated to the ingredients, their origins, and the communities that grow them. And most of all, we're dedicated to flavor for the consumer and our artistic touch that goes into making it.
