Talk:Beer in Japan

package sizes ?
grateful if someone could describe packaging sizes, ie how big are bottles / cans ? Especially, are these international/metric sizes ? This has implications for import/export matters Feroshki (talk) 08:50, 30 January 2009 (UTC)

Contradiction about history
The first two paragraphs are contradictory about the origin of beer production in Japan. The first para claims the Dutch introduced beer in the Edo period, which the second claims that it was the Germans in the Meji period. I do not know which is correct. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 67.89.42.34 (talk) 16:35, 31 July 2009 (UTC)
 * A little bit of each, apparently. And here's something definitive: Kortoso (talk) 22:15, 26 April 2016 (UTC)

Early beer in Japan
http://www.nymtc.com/Japanese-Beer/#.Vx_nd_7mp1c
 * The history of Ishikawa Brewery started on September 1, 1863 (under the old calendar). The original location of the brewery was in Ogawa village on the opposite bank of the Tama River. In 1881, Ishikawa Brewery built a new kura (storehouse) in the present Kumagawa area and, in 1883, the whole business finished moving to this location.

After the Meiji Restoration, beer began to be brewed in the foreigners' colonies in Yokohama and Hokkaido and, in the 1880s or 1890s, beer making started in many places in Japan. Ishikawa Beer Brewery (presently Ishikawa Brewery Co., Ltd.) began making beer in February 1888 and, in June of the same year, they started selling their beer to customers in neighboring districts, Tokyo, and Yokohama by the designation of "Nihon-Bakushu" ("JAPAN BEER" on the English label).
