Over the course of the next six months a team of Sapporo secret shoppers will be visiting select venues across Australia in search of the perfect pour of a Sapporo.

From 1 July to 1 December the team of testers will be offering spot prizes for perfect pours, wit the successful bartender, and their bar, going into a draw to win a trip to Japan.

For Sapporos that are poured correctly, using the iconic Japanese Two-Part-Pour tap, the bartender will score an instant $100 EFTPOS card and entry into the Japan trip draw.

In a statement about the prize, Sapporo said: “When you taste Sapporo in Japan, it just hits different. That’s because Japanese bartenders use a precise Two Part Pour technique — a ritual that creates a velvety, silky, aromatic head and locks in flavour. It’s beer, levelled up.”

The prize includes return flights from any Australian capital city, five nights in Tokyo, a tour of Tokyo’s bar scene and $1000 spending money, per person.

Sapporo said: “This isn’t just a Japanese adventure — it’s a full-blown hospo pilgrimage. Taste Sapporo and Yebisu in Tokyo’s oldest and coolest bars, explore Izakayas, and raise a glass in the country where the Two-Part-Pour was born.”

Full details on the competition and how to pour the perfect Sapporo are available through the Sapporo website.
