Yebisu Beer Museum

Free, small, very modern and beautiful museum of the brewery which is quite interesting. You can also buy some merchandise or join a free tour. My highlight was the tasting of different beer which were really amazing and on the same level of my favorite German beers! Also super fair price for good amount of beer.

Bit hard to find, was in B1. But beers were good and the museum bit was very very good. Nice to get a history of the area. Recommend one beer here, and one at the Yebisu Stand which is also on the old brewery grounds but at ground level and a much more local vibe. Ebisu itself is great and well worth a wonder.

Nice insight into the history of the brewery, in a nice setting and the bar is also good with excellent food to accompany. They do encourage people to stay for 1 hour max, but it wasn't too busy when we went

What a great experience! Decided to check out the Ebisu Christmas decorations and realized there’s a beer museum of my favorite beer nearby so I went to check it out. It’s one of those things that wasn’t in your itinerary but became one of the best things for the day. I went in around 5pm and the place had a decent crowd. The place was big and had nice ambient lights making it look modern and calming. The big yebisu logo was so distinct and eye catching. I went to check out the brewing process which via a quick GIF and then proceeded to walk around the room for the history of yebisu beer. The room wasn’t big but provided sufficient information to get a good understand of its history. It was honestly the perfect amount to capture one’s attention and keep things interesting. Even learned that it lost its name during the war and was founded again 28 years later! And also never knew ebisu station was named after the beer! Very cool facts. Ended off the tour by heading to the beer hall. As compared to the one in Sapporo (Sapporo beer), this one looks much nicer and modern. I got myself a beer flight for only 1800Y. They pour it infront of you and even explain to you the beer they serve you albeit in Japanese. Advisable to find a seat before ordering but I was alone and fortunately managed to find a table despite it being pretty much fully occupied. All the beers in the flight were delicious. Ended the visit by purchasing myself a cute pair of socks for 1200Y as a great memory of this place.

Wife and I went on a little date here while our kids were taking a school test in Ebisu. I can’t remember ever trying Yebisu beer, and thought of it as kinda crappy beer. I was pleasantly surprised when I tried the sampler. All four beers tasted great and so fresh. The sausage plate was good too. It was neat to walk around the history museum and everything was in Japanese and English……and it’s free. Later that night I got a Yebisu can beer at Lawson and it was disgusting 🤮 lol.
