Wash down Sapporo's pleasures with a slug of its famous beer.
On the same beer-soaked latitude as Munich and Milwaukee, Sapporo lays undisputed claim to the title of Japan's brewing mecca. Beer-makers Sapporo, Asahi, Kirin and a host of local microbreweries have all set up shop here, helping to make this energetic city even more spirited and rambunctious.

The kick of Sapporo, though, comes from much more than its most famous export. This friendly, cosmopolitan city welcomes visitors with a flourishing restaurant scene, as well as myriad outdoorsy opportunities in the rugged HokkaidÅ landscape outside of town.
