		For the last half-century, the brewing industry in Japan has been dominated by the “Big Three”: Asahi Breweries, Sapporo Breweries (known as Nippon Breweries prior to 1964), and Kirin Brewery Co.
		The presence of only a handful of brewers in one of the world’s largest beer markets was due to the Japanese Beer Tax Law, which specified a minimum quantity of beer necessary to be produced in order to obtain a manufacturing license.
		The tax law made it nearly impossible for new players to enter the market, but after the law was finally relaxed in 1994, many small regional breweries are beginning to appear.
