Japan is a large brewing nation since the Germans, Dutch and Americans helped the industry develop in the 1860's and 1870's. Kirin is the fourth largest brewer in the world. The big four Japanese breweries are Kirin, Sapporo, Asahi and Suntory. Sapporo is available in Britain and further Japanese beers will be exported.
