 PROFILE
Kirin Brewery of America helps provide Americans with brews to wash down their sushi. Using Anheuser-Busch's facilities in Los Angeles, the wholly owned subsidiary of Japan's Kirin Brewery Company brews Kirin Lager (one of the world's biggest beer brands), Kirin Draft, Kirin Ichiban, and Kirin Light. The brews are most popular in the western US, home to many Japanese-Americans, and are distributed through Anheuser-Busch's network of wholesalers. The company has begun brewing and distributing beer in Canada to help its parent reduce exporting costs. Kirin Brewery of America was founded in 1996.
