You know all about holiday celebrations such as Saint Patrick’s Day and Cinco de Mayo. But are you familiar with International Sushi Day? First celebrated in 2009, International Sushi Day, celebrated this year on June 18th, was established to encourage individuals, from across the globe, to eat and to love sushi no matter the kind.

Sushi and Sapporo: A Perfect Match

You know beers that are perfect on Saint Patrick’s Day. And, of course, when it comes to Cinco de Mayo, you know what to ask for. So what is the beer for International Sushi Day? It’s Sapporo Premium Beer!

Founded in 1876 by the adventurous risk-taker Seibei Nakagawa, the first Japanese brew master trained in Germany, Sapporo holds the distinct title of being the oldest brand of beer in Japan. Today Sapporo with its high-quality ingredients, crisp and refreshing flavor and clean finish is the best-selling Asian beer in America!

What about the sushi?

Do you know sushi? It’s the Japanese delicacy of specially prepared vinegar-flavored rice that more and more people have grown to love. Invented in Southeast Asia, before traveling to China and then introduced to Japan in the 8th century, sushi is eaten topped with seafood, or vegetables or fruit and it’s teamed with sauces and seasonings. It not only tastes good but it’s good for you, whether you eat it for breakfast, lunch or dinner! It’s also one of the foods that is so filled with variety you can rarely get bored with what you’re trying and tasting.

There’s also a Sapporo’s Sushi Star game. It’s a fun way to kick off the celebrations for International Sushi Day. Who will top the leaderboard? The International Sushi Day Prize Pack includes a Sapporo International Sushi Day T-shirt, a cool bottle opener and Sapporo pint glasses.
