That’s the phrase that could transform your next shift — and your life.
Sapporo is sending a bartender (and their bar owner) on the ultimate bar-hopping tour
of Tokyo. All they have to do is what they do every night: pour a beer. But not just any
beer — a perfect Sapporo using the iconic Japanese Two-Part-Pour tap.
From July 1st to December 1st, Sapporo’s resident chameleon Timo-san (a.k.a. the
Sapporo Secret Shopper) will be hitting handpicked venues with a team across
Australian cities. Each time you hear the magic words — “One Sapporo please” — is a
chance to test your skills.
Pour it cold, clear, and creamy? Boom. You win:
• An instant $100 EFTPOS card
• An entry for the major prize: a once-in-a-lifetime Tokyo trip for you and a friend
But that’s not all. The bar you work for gets just as lucky:
• The same Tokyo trip for the venue owner (+1)
• A trophy that will set you apart from other venues forever
The prize includes:
• Return flights from any Aussie capital
• Five nights in a minimum four-star Tokyo hotel
• One epic hosted night out in Tokyo’s legendary bar scene
• $1000 spending money per person
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.
Why the fuss about the pour?
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.
Need to learn? If you’re a Sapporo stockist and have the two-part-pour tap installed in
your venue, you just need to watch the training video here or book a live session with our
Beer Sensei, Shimo-san.
One pour could change everything.
Whether you win the Tokyo trip or not, your Sapporo will taste better and every customer
will experience the difference. So, be prepared next time someone says:
“One Sapporo please.”
It might just be Timo-san. And that might be your ticket to Tokyo.
Winner drawn 3rd December at 10am.
