Asahi Super Dry

On a recent trip to Osaka we headed to Nishinomiya for a tour of the Asahi brewery there. The brewery was about a 15 minute walk from the Nishinomiya Station on the JR Kobe Line. Guided by Asahi’s public relations staff, the tour started with a display of the raw materials used to brew beer: malted barley, hops, water and yeast. We were able to sift our hands through the grain samples. This was followed by an overview of the 5 steps to making beer: processing the barley (malting), the mashing process, the fermentation and maturation processes, the filtration process, and finally the bottling and canning processes.
