Asahi Group Holdings is Japan's largest beer and beverage company, known for Asahi Super Dry beer. The company has significantly expanded in Australia, acquiring Carlton & United Breweries (CUB) in 2020 for $16 billion, making it owner of iconic Australian brands including Victoria Bitter (VB), Carlton Draught, Great Northern, and Cascade. This means many beers perceived as Australian are now Japanese-owned.
