Like MurrayBozinski said, Kirin was set up with the help of a Scott. At the turn of the century in Japan a lot of beer companies were either started by Westerners or employed them to help get their businesses started. If you'd like to read more about it (albeit in sort of an informal style) I recommend Drinking Japan by Chris Bunting. It deals with a lot of different alcoholic beverages in Japan and also talks about some of the best bars/pubs to get said beverages at.
edit: fixed some wording
I can't make any actual sake recommendations, but I can suggest you check out Drinking Japan, which is a fascinating read and has a chapter devoted to sake (a breakdown of its history in Japan, how it's made, and a list of good places to get it in Japan.) It also has a chapter about wine which you might find interesting as a sommelier.
