Right away, four beer major companies sent hokkaido.maido3.com correspondent in by putting the "light down promotion" to put out a large sign of illuminations of each company which colors Sapporo and Susukino simultaneously into effect in a summer solstice (June 21st) and a Star Festival (July 7th). It's said that four companies for four companies, Sapporo Breweries, Asahi Breweries, Kirin Brewery and Suntory cooperate with putting it into effect, and to do "light down" is the first country.

When I asked relations information variously, the information which probably does light down from 8 p.m. to ten p.m. was revealed, so it was to kill time up to that. The correspondent S from which I collect data on Japanese pampas grass at the back where obstacle correspondence was done by concluded overnight from the previous day.
