The Sapporo Beer Museum is a three-story building that is open to the public at no cost. Visitors can take a guided tour of the museum, where they will find exhibits on the history of the beer industry and Sapporo Brewery Inc., including displays of beer bottles, signs, posters, miniature building replicas, and historical brewing equipment. Some of these items were used in the brewery prior to WWII. The museum also features exhibits on the DaiNippon Beer Company, a predecessor of Sapporo Brewery, and the Yebisu Beer brand. On the second floor, there is a museum bar where visitors can try Sapporo Beer products, and on the first floor, there is a restaurant called "Star Hall" and a museum shop. The museum is located in the Sapporo Garden Park, which also houses the Ario Sapporo shopping mall and the Sapporo Beer Garden, which is connected to the museum.
