Corona Extra Beer

Corona Extra is a pale lager beer originally brewed by Grupo Modelo in Mexico in 1925. It is now owned by Anheuser-Busch InBev, a Belgian multinational beverage and brewing company. The beer is brewed in multiple countries to meet global demand, including Mexico, the United States, and Brazil. The brand is renowned for its light, crisp flavor and is often served with a wedge of lime, a practice that originated in Mexico and has become synonymous with the brand in export markets. Despite being brewed in clear glass bottles, which can expose the beer to light and potentially affect its taste, Corona Extra maintains its quality through modified brewing techniques. The beer is exported to over 150 countries and is the best-selling Mexican beer worldwide. In the United States, it is the number one imported beer. The brand's marketing often features beach scenes, reinforcing its image as a symbol of relaxation and leisure. In 2013, Anheuser-Busch InBev acquired Grupo Modelo, thereby gaining ownership of the Corona brand. This acquisition expanded Anheuser-Busch InBev's presence in the global beer market, particularly in the United States, where Corona Extra has been a popular choice since its introduction in 1981. The beer's distinctive clear bottle and iconic label make it instantly recognizable, contributing to its global popularity. (booznow.com)
