Beer Museum Yebisu

There can be few beers that have given a name to a place. 

Named after Yebisu Beer, which made its debut in 1890 and to which both Ebisu Station and the surrounding neighborhood owe their names, it presents a high-tech explanation (in Japanese only) of an age-old process. I especially like the gallery of old beer advertisements, but it’s not always on display.

Now it`s a part of the Sapporo Beer company, the Beer Museum Yebisu is on the original site, part of one of Tokyo’s most distinctive landmarks, the Yebisu Garden Place.
